Project 365 By Campbell

When Campbell Remess was nine, he asked his parents if they could buy Christmas presents for every child at their local hospital in Tasmania. His mother explained that the family could not afford such a large gift.

Campbell did not abandon the idea. He decided he would make the presents himself. Although he had never sewn before, he taught himself through patience, mistakes and practice. His goal was extraordinary: create one teddy bear every day for a year so hundreds of sick children could receive something made especially to comfort them.

The first bears were imperfect, but Campbell kept going. His bedroom gradually became a sewing workshop filled with fabric, thread and finished toys. Project 365 grew beyond its original Christmas mission, and Campbell continued making bears for children in hospitals and people experiencing grief or hardship.

According to the project’s official account, he had made thousands of bears as the initiative grew. Yet the heart of the story remains a nine-year-old hearing “we cannot afford that” and answering with creativity instead of disappointment. Campbell could not buy 365 gifts, so he gave something more personal: his time. What act of kindness could you begin today using skills you have not learned yet?

Ten-year-old me would be sewing right now; I wish I had my machine but that’s still In Hobart, however twenty-one-year-old me is finishing work and heading to give blood. I know it’s a small act, but I feel compelled to do something. This is it. Blood is desperately needed. If you are able to, please consider donating, too.

In 2015, when the Paris terrorist attacks struck, I was only ten years old. The sheer scale of the horror—the why, the reason, the unimaginable act—was beyond my comprehension. Then, the news hit closer to home: a young Hobart woman, Emma Parkinson, was injured while on the other side of the world. That a tragedy of such magnitude could touch someone from my own town, someone I might have passed on the street, was truly stunning, an unseen horror that suddenly became real.

Yesterday, I finished work on a blistering hot day. I called my Mum; the family was busy at home. "It's so busy there," I told her, "I'll call you later. It’s so hot I'm heading to Bondi."

Just two hours later, I was back on the phone, and all she could hear was a frantic reassurance: "I’m okay. When you see the news, know that I’m okay."

My friends and I had headed to Bondi. It was packed—a beautiful Sydney day filled with people, festivals, and delight. In a matter of minutes, that gorgeous day turned into what will forever be known as one of Sydney’s darkest.

I was only a kilometre away—I had literally just left the beach when it began. A terrorist attack, not across the world, but in what is now my own home city. And once again, a young person from Hobart was right there, in the thick of it.

These things remain utterly senseless. Though I am no longer ten, but now twenty-one, I still cannot grasp the logic of the illogical. My heart is completely broken for the injured, and for the grieving families who have lost loved ones.

Be kind, always.
