Hi there,
Oh. My. Goodness.
I always knew Our Village was filled with a big-hearted community of givers.
But would you look at the state of our warehouses!
Click here to help us get these amazing donations out the door and to babies and children in need! [[link removed]]
This is just a fraction of the pre-loved donations that have arrived recently. Prams, highchairs, car seats, cots, bedding, and clothes for babies and children of all ages.
It's hard to show you the scale in a photo or email. But let me tell you - It’s incredible!
This enormous collection of quality pre-loved goods have been saved from landfill by the wonderful people who took the time to donate them. And we are so thankful!
But they’re no good to babies and children in desperate need when they’re sitting in our warehouse!
A gift of $59 today, will help deliver these pre-loved essentials to the children who need them. [[link removed]]
What happens next with all these items? As you can imagine, our volunteers will thoroughly check every piece by hand.
Clothes will be examined for stains or damage. Every item that’s spotless will be sorted into sizes and seasons, and lovingly packed into a clothing bundle to help a child get through the year ahead.
Car seats, cots and prams will go through a list of safety checks. If needed, they’ll be stripped back, washed and repaired.
Yes, we have the quality, pre-loved goods waiting in our warehouses. Our volunteers are ready. The orders are coming in thick and fast.
Now we just need you.
With your donation today, together, we can make sure every child in Our Village feels our love and care. [[link removed]]
I’ll leave the last word to Andrea* a mum living with a disability who is doing everything she can to support her two-year-old daughter.
“To someone like me who has been a grateful recipient, every bit matters. 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.”
Any gift you make today will help deliver these essential items in our warehouse to vulnerable children around Victoria.
Thank you so much for your support,
Ruth Holdaway MBE
CEO, Our Village
P.S. The mountain of goods here could have become landfill. Instead, each item is being checked and given the TLC needed for it to be re-used. With orders coming in every day, there can be no delay. Please donate today to help gift a pram, cot or other essentials to a child who desperately needs it. Thank you! [[link removed]]
