Annual Secret Santa Appeal

Become a Secret Santa

G’day!

Christmas is seen as a time for family, for laughter, eating and joy. Unfortunately, not everyone has loved ones around them at Christmas, which is particularly difficult for the elderly in our community. The increase of depression, loneliness, heart disease and anxiety are only a few of the negative impacts of living in isolation.

I invite you to support STAR Community Services and ‘Become a Secret Santa’ to demonstrate to older members of our community that we care. Your gift will mean so much and bring such joy as a STAR volunteer delivers it to a person who may be struggling to cope with being alone on Christmas Day.

Let’s come together to show our elderly that we care.
