Recipient story
Young mum with newborn baby, finding it hard while awaiting payments, needs support and some Christmas Cheer
Domestic & Family Violence
First Nations Support
Other hardship(s)
Homelessness
Christmas 2026
16 year old new mum is experiencing significant vulnerability and financial hardship. She has recently fled a situation of serious family violence and is now working diligently to stabilise her circumstances. Despite these challenges, she is demonstrating strong motivation and resilience. She has actively re-engaged with education and has completed and continues to access addiction support services to improve her long-term wellbeing and parenting capacity. However, due to her limited access to financial resources, including minimal Centrelink support, currently waiting for parenting payments to commence, she is unable to afford essential items required for herself and her baby. Without assistance, she remains at risk of ongoing hardship and lacks the basic necessities needed to support a safe and healthy life for her baby. Any support would provide critical relief by enabling this young mum to have a stable and nurturing home environment for her baby.
