Mallee Family Care Christmas Appeal

For many children and young people, Christmas is a time of excitement, celebration and receiving a gift they’ve been looking forward to. But for families experiencing hardship, the festive season can bring additional financial pressure and uncertainty.

Each year, Mallee Family Care’s Christmas Appeal brings the community together to help ensure children and young people engaged with our programs have something special to open on Christmas morning.

Get involved! Your generosity makes a difference

To get involved in our annual Christmas Appeal please contact us on 03 5023 5966 or email marketing@malleefamilycare.com.au

Whether you’re an individual, business, community group, school or workplace, you can help make Christmas brighter for a local child.

Donate a new gift, organise a workplace drive or community collection, or make a monetary donation to help us purchase gifts for children and young people in need.

Together, we can help make sure every child has a reason to smile this Christmas.

Support Mallee Family Care’s Christmas Appeal and help make Christmas special for a local child.
 
Thank you to our Christmas Appeal supporters

In 2025, our biggest Christmas Appeal yet supported 862 children across our region – a 58 per cent increase on the previous year.

This incredible result was made possible by the generosity of local businesses, community groups and individuals who donated gifts and supported the appeal.

We gratefully acknowledge their contributions.
