Recipient story
Meals build trust—please help us get a fridge so staff and young people can share food, connect, and begin healing together.
Other hardship(s)
Domestic & Family Violence
Our organisation supports young people aged 14–18 who are experiencing complex mental health challenges, trauma, and disengagement from school and services. The young people we work with have not been able to engage in traditional, clinic-based care.
Our model is built on outreach so Practitioners meet young people where they are — at home, in community, and often in our therapeutic garden — creating safe, informal spaces where trust can develop over time.
Sitting together, preparing meals, and eating side by side helps reduce anxiety, build connection, and open the door to deeper therapeutic conversations. A fridge for our staff team is essential to support this model. It enables safe storage of food used in:
therapeutic engagement in our garden
shared meals that build trust and belonging
preparation for multi-day camps and outdoor activities
Our practitioners often work long, mobile days and need access to food storage to sustain themselves while delivering this work.
