Big Chockys Christmas Give Away

Politics & Controversy aside this Christmas, we’re doing something real.

I’m launching this Give Away to help any Australian families doing it tough, not with mere loose change but with real help that actually makes a difference.


OUR MISSION

Too many good people are struggling right now.
Groceries have gone up, power bills are through the roof and Christmas, a time that should bring hope and joy, can easily become the hardest part of the year.

So here’s the goal:
Every Aussie family we help will receive a minimum of $1,000.
Whether that’s to fill the fridge, cover rent, or make sure the kids still wake up to presents, it’s about giving people breathing room and dignity again.

No token gestures. No “$50 and good luck.”
If we’re helping, we’re helping properly.


WHY THIS MATTERS?

Australia was built on mateship.
We’ve always looked out for each other, neighbour to neighbour, not from politicians or big organisations.

This Give Away is about restoring that spirit.
Aussies helping Aussies, one family at a time.


WHERE THE MONEY GOES?

Every dollar raised goes straight toward helping Australian families with bills, groceries, rent or Christmas gifts.

To run this properly, I’ll retain a small 10% portion for admin costs like postage, verification, coordination & potentially travel for big gifts that are delivered face to face.
No wages, no profits.
Just what’s needed to make sure every dollar lands where it should.

The remaining 90% goes directly to verified families.

Once it’s complete, I’ll post a full breakdown showing the total raised, admin costs and how many families were helped.
Full transparency, no BS.


HOW FAMILIES APPLY?

If you or someone you know is struggling, you can apply confidentially through the form linked below.
It takes two minutes and everything stays private.


For Businesses and/or Large Donors

If you’re a business owner or private supporter who would like to collaborate or you’d prefer to donate directly, contact me at [email redacted].au for the details/communication.

All direct transfers will be recorded and included in the final public breakdown.


LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN

If you’ve done well this year, help someone who hasn’t.
Together we can make sure no Aussie family goes without this Christmas.

Every $1,000 raised is another household given hope.
No charity bureaucracy.
No middlemen.
Just real people helping real people.

Merry Christmas,
Chris “Big Chocky” Katelaris
