A word from our CEO

A growing number of families across Victoria and Tasmania are facing a tough festive season this year. Many will miss out on a meal this Christmas amid poor living circumstances and financial pressures.

Sandra’s story

When Sandra’s 18 month old granddaughter came into her fulltime care at 58, her life changed completely. From a working grandmother, to full-time caregiver of a toddler, the impact on her financial situation was overwhelming.

Peter’s story

Peter* has one goal in life – to see his daughter achieve her dreams.

But as a single father relying on a pension as his only source of income, Peter has struggled to make ends meet.

Jodie’s story

As the mother with two teenage daughters, Jodie had no family close by or friends to rely on when the environment she was living in became abusive and unsafe for her family to stay in.
