Today’s outreach was made extra special by Keyur and Paula, who were there to welcome everyone and share a cuppa. ☕️

A big thank you to the anonymous local group who are still sending us their yummy tarts — they’re always a hit! 🥧💛

☕️ A cuppa and a sweet treat at today’s outreach 🥧

Our tea and coffee station was enjoyed with fresh tarts and biscuits today. It was lovely to share a cuppa, a treat and a friendly chat with everyone who stopped by.

Thank you to everyone who helps make our Sunday outreach a welcoming place for our community. 💙

CLC Eltham once again sent along some delicious homemade “Schoolmade” brownies for today’s outreach.

We cut them into pieces and served them with the coffee—and they absolutely blew everyone away! So many people told us how amazing they were. One person even asked for the recipe, while others wanted to know who had made them so we could pass on their thanks.

To the wonderful students at CLC Eltham Catholic Ladies' College your brownies were a huge hit, and the people we support wanted you to know just how much they loved them. Thank you for sharing such a special homemade treat with our community. 💙💛

PRACTICAL WARMTH FOR A MELBOURNE WINTER

Hayden’s Helping Hands is incredibly grateful to the Harcourts Foundation ( Harcourts Foundation Australia ) for awarding us a generous grant to support our winter relief program.

This funding has helped us purchase blankets, beanies, gloves, warm socks and other winter essentials for people experiencing homelessness.

These items have been distributed directly through our weekly Melbourne outreach, giving our street friends practical protection against the cold, wet and unpredictable winter weather.

For someone sleeping rough, a warm blanket or dry pair of socks can make an enormous difference. Thanks to the Harcourts Foundation, we have been able to provide that warmth and care to many more people this winter.

THERMAL WARMTH WHEN IT’S NEEDED MOST

Hayden’s Helping Hands is incredibly grateful to the Tobin Brothers Foundation (Tobin Brothers )for awarding us a generous grant for our winter warmth program.

This funding enabled us to purchase a large supply of quality thermal tops and bottoms in a wide range of sizes. These have been distributed directly to people experiencing homelessness through our weekly Melbourne outreach.

When someone is sleeping rough during a freezing Melbourne winter, thermal clothing is much more than a layer of warmth—it can make a genuine difference to their health and wellbeing.

Thank you to the Tobin Brothers Foundation for believing in our work and helping us provide practical warmth and care when it is needed most.

**🥶 TONIGHT, SOMEONE WILL GO TO SLEEP COLD. YOUR EOFY DONATION CAN CHANGE THAT. 🥶**

**Every tax-deductible donation made before midnight can help put warmth into the hands of someone who needs it most.**

This Sunday, our volunteers were once again on the streets supporting people experiencing homelessness. We handed out warm clothing, beanies and other essentials, but the need is still overwhelming.

As Melbourne's winter continues, there are still far too many people facing freezing nights without enough warm clothing or bedding.

🧢 Warm beanies
🧦 Thermal socks
❤️ Essential winter supplies

Hayden's Helping Hands is a **registered Australian charity**, so **all donations of $2 or more are tax deductible**.
