WINTER RELIEF APPEAL
No parent should face winter alone.
This winter, your support can keep local families warm, safe, and hopeful.
Winter is one of the hardest times of the year for many families across North and North West Tasmania.
Right now, we’re seeing more people than ever before reaching out for help.
Parents are doing everything they can to hold things together, but rising rent, power bills, and the cost of food are making it harder to keep up.
For many, it doesn’t happen all at once. It starts quietly. A bill that’s a little higher than expected. A rent increase that just can’t be absorbed. And then suddenly, it becomes overwhelming.
Please donate to our Winter Relief Appeal today. Your tax-deductible donation make sure no parent faces winter alone.

Practical support and care for families doing it tough
Your donation stays local, supporting families right here in our community.
“That sinking feeling…”
Kayla* is a mum of two with a steady job. She’s always managed on her own.
But over time, rising rent and bills became too much.
“I remember opening the power bill… that sinking feeling when you realise you can’t fix it on your own this time.”
There were nights where she had to choose between putting the heater on or making sure there was enough food.
That’s when she reached out to City Mission.
With support, Kayla received help with her bills, food hampers, and warm clothing for her children.
“I don’t feel like I’m one step away from everything falling apart anymore.”
You can help a local family like Kayla’s - please donate today
