CHRISTMAS APPEAL

Everyone deserves a Merry Christmas.

At MarionLIFE Community Services, we believe that every individual deserves care, hope, and the opportunity to thrive. As you know, we are dedicated to providing meaningful, flexible, and responsive support to individuals and families in need.

This Christmas, I am reaching out to you for help. With the increase in demands for our services, we need your support to continue making a difference in the lives of the amazing members of our community.

People like Maggie*, who dedicated her life to raising her children but is now left alone. With her own strength and resilience she chooses to connect with her community and come to MarionLIFE’s Christmas Day Lunch. Here she is able to not only fight loneliness in her own life but also help others around her remember they too are special. This space is only open to her because of generous people like yourself stepping up and making a financial contribution.

Maggie knows she can come and share a wonderful day with her friends because MarionLIFE has been there with her all year. She loves the connections she has built by attending the Community Meal every fortnight.

Your donation will make a world of difference. For example:

-$10 covers the cost of Christmas lunch for one person

-$50 provides a hamper that makes a family’s Christmas special

-$120 fights food insecurity and loneliness by providing a meal once a month to a community member, where they eat a delicious 2 course meal with other members of the community.

Donations are tax-deductible and can be made online via donation box above. Donations can also be made in person or by direct debit – contact us for more details.

This year we need to raise $15,000 by 15 December. Your generous support this Christmas will help MarionLIFE continue to be a beacon of hope and care for our community. Together, we can see a lasting impact on the lives of those who need it most.
