Donation Ideas

Sometimes it’s hard to know what to give — especially when time is short or the baby bubble feels distant. This page is here to spark ideas and show how every single donation, big or small, helps lift the load off a new mama’s shoulders. Whether you're a meal-prep whiz, a snack-stasher, or a self-care lover, there’s a way to contribute.

Donation Ideas for Mamas

Support The Village Behind the Scenes

It takes a village to run The Village! If you’re not sure what to donate or want to help in other ways, here are some simple yet powerful ways to keep us going:

Donate Spare Cooler Bags & Ice Packs

We deliver fresh, perishable meals — which means we always need cooler bags and ice packs! If you have any spares at home, we’d love to give them a second life.

Spread the Word

One of the best things you can do is help us grow. Share our story with your friends, local groups, or online communities. The more people who know about The Village, the more mamas we can reach and support.

Ideas:

  • Share our Instagram, Facebook or website

  • Tell your mother’s group or workplace

  • Nominate a mama in need

  • Leave flyers at local cafés or community spaces (ask us for a printable!)

Drop Off 10c Containers

We’re collecting eligible cans and bottles as part of the 10c refund scheme. It’s an easy, eco-friendly way to help us raise funds for meals and care package items. Get in touch to do a drop off.

Not sure what to give? That’s okay.

Every bit counts. You can always reach out and we’ll point you toward current gaps or needs. Or simply donate $ and we’ll put it towards a care package.
