Help Bring Joy to Migrant and Refugee Children & Families This Christmas
Christmas 2025
On 22 December, we’ll be celebrating our annual Christmas Party for migrant, refugee, and asylum-seeker families - and we need your help to make it magical.
This year, we hope to gift over 200 Christmas presents to children and families across the ACT - many of whom are doing it tough as they settle into their new lives in Australia.
For many, this time of year can feel lonely or uncertain. Some are facing financial hardship, housing stress, or the challenge of rebuilding their lives far from loved ones. But with your support, we can remind them that they’re not alone - that this community cares deeply.
Your kindness could mean:
A child waking up to a special present from Santa.
A family sharing a warm home-cooked meal together.
Or parents and kids laughing as they bond over a puzzle.
Every small act of generosity helps fill a home with joy, hope, and belonging.
Together, let’s make this Christmas brighter for families who need it most. ❤️
