Every year there are hundreds of families in our local community that are struggling to provide the basic essentials for their children. There is nothing worse than feeling anxious and unsure, especially through tough family circumstances.
The Department of Communities works with thousands of families within the community to protect children and young people and to help find them a safe home. Gotcha Back partners with various child safety offices and puts together backpacks full of essentials for young people in need. We aim to ensure that every child feels comfortable, warm and clean, no matter their circumstance.
HOW CAN I HELP?
There are several ways you can be involved:
• PURCHASE A GOTCHA BACK CARE BAG
See the shopping list for pack inventory, choose an age and gender of the child you want to buy for, then bring these to any of our Gotcha Back dropoff stations.
• PURCHASE ITEMS TO BE USED IN CARE BAGS
Bring these to any of our Gotcha Back dropoff stations.
• MAKE A DONATION
• FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK
We are constantly posting ways you can help.
