Dear Supporter, When Andrea* walks her two-year-old daughter to daycare on chilly mornings, she tucks her little hands into a pair of mittens. They came in her clothing bundle from Our Village. Andrea lives with a disability and doesn’t have close support around her. She told us how much it meant to receive a clothing bundle: “I was so excited about the recent package that we got from Our Village because there were mittens in there. I felt really happy. A lot of the time I have to walk her to daycare because I can't drive. I've been able to use them when the mornings have been crisp.” These bundles aren’t just clothes, they are much more. They are dignity, care and joy for families doing it tough. Right now, we’re receiving hundreds of requests each week – and without more regular financial support, too many children will go without. That’s why we’re asking you to become an Ultimate Supporter. With a monthly commitment of $15, $20, $30 or more, you’ll help give a child their own clothing bundle every month – packed with warm, practical essentials like tops, pants, pyjamas, shoes and a cosy coat. Our Village volunteers make the most gorgeous bundles of clothing for children in need. Our age-appropriate bundle bags are filled to overflowing with staple clothing items like pants, tops and dresses, as well as underwear, pj’s, shoes and a winter coat. Each bundle is lovingly put together and presented as a gift – so each child feels valued and special when they receive their own clothing bundle. The grateful families that receive Our Village bundles tell us how much it means to have them so lovingly created, well presented, and with a little note saying who proudly packed it for them. Andrea explains it best: “We didn't really have anything and we didn't really have any support. Thanks to all the people that donated to Our Village, I'm able to put her in warm clothes and she has nice shoes that she really loves. “With all my heart, I'm so grateful. I don't even have all the words to say, but I'm just so grateful for all of it.” For just $15, $20 or $30 a month, you can help ease the burden for parents like Andrea, and keep children clothed and cared for. With heartfelt thanks, Ruth Holdaway, MBE CEO, Our Village P.S. Please reach out to us with any questions you might have – email us at [email protected] or call us on 1300 789 509.
