Grocery Voucher - $20

South Melbourne VIC 3205

This family urgently needs support to cover the costs of obtaining a passport, an essential form of photo identification. A passport will allow access to important milestones such as applying for employment, enrolling in further education, and eventually securing a driver’s licence. For the eldest child, who is turning 15 and eager to seek part-time work, it will be the only valid form of photo ID available and therefore a crucial step toward independence. With household income stretched to cover only the most basic needs, even essential costs like a passport application can create financial strain. Coles vouchers would help offset everyday living expenses, freeing up limited funds to go toward this vital document. Beyond its practical importance, a passport also represents opportunity, identity, and connection. In the future, it could enable travel to reconnect with cultural roots and heritage, experiences that have never before been possible for the children.

Recipient story

A family of four are struggling with homelessness, rising costs, and the need for a secure future.
GIVIT
A single mother and her three children have faced the ongoing challenges of homelessness for many years. While they are currently staying in transitional housing, this is only a short-term arrangement and does not provide the long-term security and stability the family needs. The uncertainty of not knowing what comes next places immense pressure on both the mother and her children, affecting their wellbeing, sense of safety, and ability to plan for the future.Living solely on Centrelink payments, the family’s financial situation is extremely limited. Everyday expenses are difficult to manage, and essential but irregular costs such as car repairs or school activities for the children place added strain on their already tight budget. The emotional impact of prolonged homelessness has left the mother struggling with stress and exhaustion, making it even harder to focus on employment or building stability. This family urgently needs support to move toward a safe and secure future.
