On average, most Australians will spend almost $600 on gifts this Christmas. That’s a collective $11 billion dollars.*

Right now almost 6000 South Australians don’t have a safe place to call home. Almost a third of these have children under 12 years old with them. They have no expectation of receiving anything this Christmas.
 

Every Christmas, Baptist Care SA’s WestCare Centre opens its doors to more than 200 children and families – and the numbers are growing. Together we share good food, laughter and a sense of community. Every child receives a gift. Today is a good place to be and tomorrow isn’t so scary.
