CALD Single mother, survivor of of domestic violence in need of financial assistance to buy xmas presets for kids
Christmas 2025
Domestic & Family Violence
I am writing to request consideration for Kmart vouchers to support a mother and her children this Christmas. The mother is a survivor of domestic and family violence and has experienced homelessness as a result of escaping unsafe circumstances. She and her children are currently living in a crisis refuge in one room while she works irregular shift work and struggles to meet basic expenses. One of her sons has very severe autism, creating additional ongoing costs and care needs. The children are not expecting gifts, however with support through donated vouchers, the mother would be able to purchase a few presents and essential items to help create a sense of joy and normalcy during a very difficult time. This support would help lift spirits and allow the family to experience some comfort and hope during the holiday period as the mother continues her determined efforts to rebuild after years of trauma.
