Recipient story
Single dad isolated needs support this Christmas
Christmas 2025
A single father and his 13-year-old daughter. The family returned to Australia approximately two years ago after living abroad in China, necessitating a difficult re-establishment process.
They have faced significant housing instability since their return, which has been highly disruptive, particularly for the teenage daughter.
While they have achieved interim stability, their finances are severely depleted due to the costs associated with repeated moves and the ongoing challenge of securing consistent, high-paying employment while navigating the stresses of single parenthood and repatriation.
We urgently request food vouchers (Coles/Woolworths preferred) to cover essential groceries for this small family during the Christmas period. This support will take a massive financial burden off the father, allowing him to focus on the long-term goal of securing permanent housing and ensuring his daughter feels secure and supported during the holidays.
