You can be the hope people need this Christmas

Every 17 seconds, someone comes to The Salvation Army for help. Christmas - usually a time of joy and togetherness - can be stressful and challenging for those facing crisis, especially with the persisting cost of living pressures. The Salvos are here with hope and help - whether people are struggling to afford daily essentials, gifts for their family, or even looking for some community and connection over Christmas. We are anticipating a sharp increase in demand for our services and we need your help.

How you can help:

Host a Salvos Giving Table. When you host a Giving Table, you are helping provide meals for someone in need. For every $10 raised, another plate is filled. You will also receive a free host kit! Bring generosity to the table this Christmas.

>> Sign up to host a giving table

Fundraise for Christmas Hope. Create an online fundraising page and collect gifts - from your family, friends and networks this Christmas. Gifts include a hot meal, gift for a child and even shelter for a night.

Organise a Food or Gift Drive with your school, workplace or community group and share the festive spirit with a family doing it tough this Christmas.
