Supporter Magazine: Autumn 2026

Hampers delivering hope and joy In the past year alone, AnglicareSA provided more than 15,000 instances of emergency relief to address an increasing need within our community, with the cost of living soaring and more South Australian families struggling to make ends meet.

800 Christmas hampers, along with a vast number of toys for children and young people. These gifts of time or donations directly supported AnglicareSA customers across South Australia including communities like Point Pearce, Wallaroo, Raukkan, and Whyalla. The impact is felt far and wide and will remain long after all the Christmas decorations have been packed away.

With your incredible support of our Christmas Hamper and Toy Drive, we were able to bring food hampers and gifts into almost 1,500 homes across South Australia – offering relief during this challenging time for families and individuals in need. Together, we really did make a difference, and without your support we could not do the work we do to make this magic happen.

In addition to the community groups and organisations supporting the hampers with generous donations of food and toys, we also had more than 200 supporters volunteer their time to pack and organise these donations.

Thank you to volunteers from ElectraNet, Beyond Bank, CMV

Group, ASC, SA Water, ANZ, as well as members of the public and our own employees. Anglican parishes and schools contributed approximately

The impact of the appeal was felt deeply by individuals and families supported through various programs: “Receiving the gift hamper was such a wonderful gift. I’ve just moved housing and it made me feel so happy and grateful for such an amazing person to think about young people who might need some extra support. I am so blessed and thankful.” “It truly made me feel so appreciated and loved, especially for my children. The thoughtfulness behind it all warmed my heart and brought a big smile to my face.”
