Salvation army, anglicare, red cross, lots of others...

The family can register and have people "adopt a family" for Xmas and arrange gifts and hampers etc to be given to those that register.

I'm sure there are some criteria but it is usually a local thing done... So it's good how locals are supporting others in their community. :goodvibes:
