Christmas Appeal 2016

Our appeal this Christmas asks you to give a lasting smile.

We say ‘lasting’ because, after the extra demands for Christmas gifts and food have subsided, there will still be families and children who need our core services: counselling, parenting support, children’s development programmes, budget advice, assistance for the elderly, welfare services and social work.

Your donation to Presbyterian Support Otago’s Christmas appeal will not only assist families with the extra financial burden that the Christmas holiday period brings, it will contribute to our ongoing welfare programmes for people, young and old, in Otago.

The coming year will be tough for some families in our community. We anticipate providing support to more than 5,500 people through our Family Works services and assisting more than 1,200 older people through our meals on wheels service, social programmes and care homes in Otago.

Christmas is a time for giving, and for thinking of others. This year we ask you to think about the enduring impact of your Christmas gift on the people in your community.

Donate here.

Thank you.
