Give the gift of kindness at Christmas

Did you know that over 12,000 children in Victoria can’t live safely at home because of violence, abuse and neglect?

Berry Street is there to step in and provide safe homes. But when children arrive in our care, they can feel scared and alone. They often have nothing – not even a toy to cuddle.

By buying a Gift From The Heart, you will be giving a child something they really need. And with your kindness, you will make them feel super special.

How it works

Gifts From The Heart are all essential items used by children and young people in our out-of-home care programs, including foster, kinship and residential care. When you buy a gift, the money will go towards something a child really needs. Whatever that something happens to be, it will make them feel truly loved.

How it works

What better way of celebrating a big occasion, than making vulnerable children feel special? Whether it’s your birthday or anniversary, simply set up your own fundraiser and invite your loved ones to give Gifts From The Heart.

Reach out to children like Albie*

Albie was found alone in a locked room. He had nothing. No safety – the only person who ever opened the door was violent and abusive. No friends. No school. No access to food, water or even a bathroom. And no love.

Albie is safe now. With help from our supporters, we placed him in a Teaching Family Model home, an innovative type of care – where he received round-the-clock specialist support.

But when Albie first arrived, he needed some essential items, to bring him comfort and help him recover. By buying Gifts From The Heart, you can help make sure children like Albie get the items they need – and feel special and loved.

*Albie’s story is all true but to keep him safe, we’ve changed his name and used a model in the photo.

As a parent, I couldn’t bear to think of kids growing up without any affection. I give Gifts From The Heart to bring some love into their lives.

Transforming young lives with love

For 140 years, with the help of our supporters, Berry Street has been making sure children in Victoria are safe, hopeful and thriving.

In 2022 alone, we provided 1,114 children with loving homes and got them the specialist support they needed to recover from trauma.

We also gave 2,615 children access to trauma-informed education services, including across the four campuses of our very own Berry Street School.
