Recipient story
A newly arrived refugee family is about to experience their first Canberra winter.
Other hardship(s)
A newly arrived refugee family is about to experience their first Canberra winter. Canberra winters can be devastatingly cold, regardless of how long one has lived here. For this newly arrived refugee family, the chill will be more than discomfort, it could make the already difficult process of settling into Australia even harder. The family arrived with limited belongings and is unprepared for freezing temperatures.
Your support can make a tangible difference. It means the family feels safe and cared for during their first winter. More than that, it offers dignity and a sense of belonging in a new community, and shields the family from the daily stress of trying to stay warm in an unfamiliar place.
