We send early Seasons Greetings from The Homestead. Another year has flown past and Christmas will soon be here!

Homestead staff have done exceptional work enabling our beneficiaries to grow and heal in so many ways. Their courage, resilience, and determination have made us so proud of them. As for previous years, we are planning a Homestead Christmas Food Parcel Drive. 

Please may we seek your generous support for our 2023 goal of providing 394 food parcels which will make Christmas special for the beneficiaries of our Child & Youth Care Centres as they spend some time with their families, and for the many community children who attend our six Homestead Drop-in Centres daily.

Every child and family receiving a food parcel will be blessed by your kindness.  The homes receiving these gifts know no luxuries at all, even basic food items are in very short supply. With that in mind, please know that a December food parcel will make such a special difference and will bring joy.
