Festive Hamper Food Drive

Providing a little extra support and care for our community with festive food hampers at Christmas time.

What is the Festive Hamper Program?

Every year, our dedicated team of staff and volunteers get busy putting together Festive Food Hampers for Blue Mountains locals who are in need of a little extra support at Christmas time.

Members of our generous community donate festive food items, make monetary donations and volunteer their time each year to support this important program.

Community members can request a Festive Food Hamper for themselves or someone they know to be collected or delivered before Christmas.

How can you donate festive food items?

Festive food items will be gratefully received and cheerfully passed on. Food items such as cakes, puddings, mince pies, pretzels, chocolates and other festive treats are needed.

All food items must be in-date and non-perishable. You can drop of food item donations at any of our Neighbourhood Centres during our regular opening hours from now until Friday 12 December.

Please find our locations and opening hours below. Please contacts us if you have any queries.
