A Fresh Start: Household Essentials

$140

When fleeing family violence, mothers and their children usually have to leave everything behind, and are left to rebuild their lives with virtually nothing. Starting again without the basic essentials is overwhelming for many women, and can add to feelings of isolation and despair.

Help give women and children fleeing family violence a new start, with a gift of essentials to set up a new, safe home.

Berry Street will give a gift on your behalf to a child, young person or parent/carer in need.

You can give a gift yourself, or on behalf of your loved ones. You can let others know of the gift via a personalised e-card, or through a personalised card you can print at home.

Help deliver a Christmas wish to a child like James

Children like James just want to feel safe this Christmas. When James first came to Berry Street, his distress was obvious.

James had witnessed family violence at home, and had frequently seen his mum be physically abused by her partner. Whenever she tried to comfort James, the violence would only escalate. For children like James, Christmas can be especially distressing, as family violence incidents increase around this time of year.

This Christmas, a simple gift will mean more to James than many of us could ever imagine. Each gift is different, but they all have this in common – for a vulnerable child they’re a sign that someone cares.
