Recipient story
Widowed mum of 4, caring for children with high needs, urgently needs food vouchers after losing her partner to cancer.
GIVIT
Seeking urgent financial support for a Widowed mum of 4. In October 2024, dad was diagnosed with liver cancer and sadly passed away in April 2025. His wife is now raising their four children alone while navigating the challenges that come with such a significant loss.
Alongside the emotional impact, the family is experiencing severe financial strain. Two of the children have additional diagnoses, including ADHD, ASD, selective mutism, and severe anxiety, requiring extra care and support. Accessing NDIS supports has been difficult, and with reduced work opportunities, it has become increasingly hard for mum to meet even the basic needs of her household.
Food vouchers would provide immediate relief, helping this family put meals on the table and ease some of the financial pressure as they adjust to life after the loss of their partner and father.
