04 Dec 2025

This year, some of our most meaningful deliveries are traveling the longest distances. Partnering with community groups and logistics providers, Simply Giving is helping get toys to families in remote parts of the Northern Territory, regional Queensland, and Western Australia - places where access to donations can be limited and freight costs often stand in the way.

From dusty outback roads to small island airstrips, every parcel tells a story of persistence and kindness. Local volunteers are ensuring that no child is forgotten, even in the most isolated communities. 

These efforts highlight what makes Simply Giving special: the ability to connect people from all corners of Australia through a shared belief that every child deserves the joy of gifts on Christmas morning.
