Experience the true meaning of Christmas by giving back to your community.

As Christmas comes around, we know it is a time for generosity, love and kindness and we want to share this with our friends, family and community who are struggling. Christmas should be a special and magical time for families, but for many living in poverty it's just another time they go without. With the rising cost of living and interest rates many parents who are going through a tough time struggle to purchase food for their Christmas table or gifts for their children. You can help us share the spirit of Christmas and bring smiles to the faces of many disadvantaged children, who might otherwise receive no presents at all this year.

BRING JOY TO OTHERS

Every year we partner with local businesses, community organisations, churches, schools and community members to run a food and toy drive for Christmas. Our Gift of Christmas Campaign begins in October each year and aims to spread the spirit of joy and love by generously blessing families who are doing it tough with the gift of Christmas for them and their loved ones.

GIFT OF JOY

Our goal is to make sure that every child (under 18) experiences the joy and happiness of opening a present they would love on Christmas day. It's important that no child is left out of the magic of the holiday season, and with your help, we can bring happiness, laughter, and unforgettable moments to these young souls.

HELP SPREAD JOY THIS CHRISTMAS

There are various ways to participate, whether you are a school, church, business, or community organisation. You can contribute by donating, sponsoring, volunteering, or organising a Gift of Christmas food/toy drive.

THANK YOU TO OUR 2025 GIFT OF CHRISTMAS COMMUNITY SUPORTERS

Each year, our Gift of Christmas program brings the spirit of the season to families who might otherwise go without. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we were able to spread joy, dignity, and hope to children and families across the Peel region. A heartfelt thank you to every supporter, volunteer, community partner and drop-off partner who help make it possible. Your kindness ensures that Christmas remains a time of joy for everyone in our community.

Become a 2025 Drop Off Point 

This year, we are once again inviting businesses, schools, and organisations to be part of something special by registering as a Gift of Christmas 2025 Drop-Off Point.


It’s simple:

  • Register your business or organisation with us.

  • We’ll promote your location as an official drop-off point so community members taking part in Reverse Advent Calendars can bring their donations to you during your opening hours.

  • You can then either drop donations to us during the week of 8th December, or we can come to you and collect.


All we ask is that you help us promote the campaign and share that you’re a drop-off location with your own community, together, we’ll spread the word and make a bigger impact.
 

To register or learn more, contact us at admin@bridgebuilders.org.au or call 0458 297 185.
