For many across Australia, winter brought with it concern and crisis.

These cold months amplified challenges like homelessness, food insecurity and violence. Your support has meant many people have not had to face these difficulties alone.

Behind every number is a person’s story. Thanks to your kindness, many of these stories now speak of healing, opportunity and hope.

Your contributions are directly supporting programs that empower individuals to rebuild their lives, foster resilience and reach long-term stability.

As we step into spring, we carry with us the reminder that community care can change lives.

Thank you for standing with those in crisis. Your support has made a lasting difference in the lives of those across Victoria and Tasmania.

Food For Families. Thanks to you.

As the cost of living rises, many families across Victoria and Tasmania have found it increasingly difficult to put food on the table.

Thanks to your donations, this year we have received over 65 tonnes of food and household essentials, which is equivalent to 129,596 meals.

Food For Families isn’t just about providing meals, it’s about restoring dignity and choice to people facing hardship.

“Whether it’s a hot meal, toiletries, or clean socks, these basics mean comfort and dignity for families and people without a home. We see the impact every day, and we’re so grateful,” says Uniting’s Ringwood Emergency Relief Coordinator, Fleur.
