Christmas Hamper Drive: Where to Drop Off & What to Donate?

This year we’re aiming to create 160 Christmas hampers for local families doing it tough this Christmas across our local community. Your support helps turn a difficult season into one filled with hope and kindness.

Christmas is meant to be a time of connection, comfort, and celebration. Yet for many families in our local community, it can also be a time of deep stress and uncertainty. Our Christmas Hamper Drive is about easing that burden, one hamper at a time. This year, we are working together to create 160 Christmas hampers for local families who are doing it tough.

Each hamper will be thoughtfully filled with essential groceries, festive treats, and a few small gifts, simple items that bring comfort, dignity, and moments of happiness during what can be an emotionally and financially demanding season.

With our collection points now confirmed, donating has never been easier.

📍 Drop-Off Locations

Together2 Rozelle Neighbourhood Centre Donations can be dropped off during regular opening hours.

Balmain Public School Students, parents, and families can leave donated items directly at the school office.

**Pop-Up Collection Point**: Loyalty Square, Balmain (in front of Woolworths) Sunday, 7th November | 8:00am – 4:00pm

🎁 What to Donate:

We are accepting non-perishable food items and festive treats only. All donated items must be new and have a long shelf-life so we can safely include them in the hampers. See below for suggested items for donation or click to download

If you’re not sure what to choose, think long-life pantry staples, family-friendly snacks, and small treats that add a touch of Christmas magic.

📅 Final Drop-Off Date:

All Drop Off Christmas Donation items must be received by 11th December, giving Santa enough time to wrap the gifts, pack the sleigh, and make sure every hamper is delivered with care.

Every contribution, no matter the size, helps create a brighter Christmas for someone in our community. One bag, one box, or one small treat can make a world of difference.

Thank you for being part of something special this season.
