Friends with Dignity Christmas Drive 2025. Help us reach 100 gifts.

This Christmas, Premis is once again supporting the Friends with Dignity Christmas Toy and Gift Drive, helping bring joy to families impacted by domestic and family violence.

For many of these families, Christmas is not about presents under the tree. It is about safety, starting again and trying to rebuild a sense of normal. A simple gift can remind a child or parent that they have not been forgotten.

This is where we can step in together as a Premis community.

Our 2025 goal -This year we have set a clear target. 100 toys and gifts, valued at $2,500.

Every toy, every voucher and every item gifted through this drive goes directly to a child, teenager or adult who is rebuilding their life with the support of Friends with Dignity.

How you can get involved

You can support the Christmas Drive in two simple ways.

1. Drop a gift to the Premis office

Premis is a collection point again this year.

Collection dates: From 1 November to 10 December

What to donate:

  • New, unwrapped toys and gifts for children and teenagers
  • Gifts for adults, including self-care items
  • Gift vouchers
  • Non-perishable festive food
  • New clothing
  • Toiletries and personal care items

Please make sure all items are new so that every person who receives a gift feels valued and respected.

Please do not donate:

  • Wrapping paper, gift bags or cards
  • Used or second hand items
  • Toy guns, including Nerf or water guns
  • Perishable food or alcohol
  • Open or damaged packaging

These guidelines help Friends with Dignity distribute safe, suitable and dignified gifts.

2. Purchase a gift online in a few clicks

If getting to the shops or to our office is tricky, you can still be involved.

We have set up an online option so you can purchase a gift directly. Select an item, pay online and your gift will be delivered into the drive on your behalf.

By supporting this drive, you are not just donating an item. You are helping a parent feel less alone. You are helping a child experience the excitement of unwrapping something chosen especially for them. You are helping restore dignity and hope.

We encourage our staff, clients, subcontractors and partners to join us. If you are planning a visit to our office, consider bringing a gift with you. If you work with us regularly, think about rallying your team or site crew to contribute. Small actions add up quickly.

Let’s hit the 100 gift target together

Thank you in advance to everyone who chooses to support the Friends with Dignity Christmas Drive with us this year. Together we can help make Christmas a little brighter for families doing it tough.

With love,
The Premis Team
