2026 April Pyjama Drive
Winter is fast approaching, and children living in domestic and family violence refuges often arrive with very few belongings.Â
Â
Each year, businesses, workplaces and volunteers across Australia come together for our April PJ Drive. In 2025, together we donated 2,080 pairs of brand-new pyjamas to children in domestic violence refuges nationwide.
Â
In 2026, we invite you to join us to help bring comfort, care and warmth to even more children this winter.
How to get involved
Donate PJs to registered location near you
Once the drive launches, you’ll be able to search for a registered Collection Point in your area and drop off brand-new pyjamas (sizes 0–16).
All donated pyjamas must be:
Brand new
Suitable for children aged 0–16
Â
Together, we can ensure every child has something warm to wear this winter.
Monetary Donations
Not everyone can get to the shops, and that’s okay.
Â
Monetary donations allow us to:
Â
Purchase specific sizes that are in high demand
Fill urgent shortfalls in certain locations
Ensure equitable distribution across refuges nationwide
Â
Every donation, big or small, helps a child feel cared for this winter.Â
