Why do we need your help at Christmas time? Head of Community Ministries Major Pam Waugh says there are two main reasons why this support is important. ‘Firstly, the family can experience Christmas and not incur extra costs that would tempt them into going into debt, or risk having the power cut off next month, or not having enough to eat for the following week,’ Pam says. It is crucial for client families to keep the pressure off their budgets before the expensive back-to-school period, she says. ‘And most importantly, it’s so the children feel included - that they are not left out of the experience of Christmas - that when they go back to school and are asked what they got for Christmas, they are not embarrassed or humiliated.’
