As the holiday season approaches, our hearts brim with the warmth of giving, sharing, and the magic of Christmas.
MacKillop Family Services encourages you to make the festive season special for children and young people in the Blacktown LGA by donating a gift in one of two ways:
MacKillop Christmas Gift Appeal
Our amazing foster carers give so much to keep children safe, valued and loved in their homes. You can help them at Christmas by providing gifts for the children and young people in their care. MacKillop also has wonderful young people up to age 18 in our residential care homes – help them also feel the love at Christmas!
What to give? Anything you would ordinarily give a child or young person at Christmas!
From now till 8 Dec 2025, please drop your new unwrapped gift for children and young people up to age 18 the location below.
MacKillop Family Services Level 1, 38 Prince Street, Blacktown CBD. (Close to Club Blacktown and the train station).
