Gifts For Families - Barwon.
We have seen a significant increase in people accessing our emergency food services throughout the year, so we anticipate the need for Christmas support will be greater than previous years.
Last year we were overwhelmed with requests for assistance and unfortunately, we weren’t able to help everyone. This year it is our goal to assist every family in need so that no child will go without a gift this Christmas.
Your generosity can help bring joy this Christmas
There are many ways you can support a local Christmas Appeal.
We need brand new (unwrapped) gifts suitable for children aged 0 to 17 years. Popular gifts include toys, sports equipment, and clothing. Where to drop off gifts.
