Supporting Anglicare Southern Queensland clients

Christmas is a time for giving and sharing joy with loved ones. It’s a time for giving, a time for reflection and a time for hope. ​​

Across our services, we have many clients who won’t have friends or family to spend the festive season with. Clients, who will struggle to provide their children with a Christmas meal, let alone presents or activities these holidays.

You can help make this Christmas bright for someone in need. By donating a gift, you are letting them know they’re not alone.

We are currently seeking donations of gifts for clients in the Greater Brisbane region. If you would like to make a donation and you reside outside of Brisbane, please email [email protected].​
