Little Things for Tiny Tots delivers urgently needed essential items for infant and maternal care to disadvantaged, vulnerable and at-risk families across Western Australia. Through their signature “Little Boxes of Hope,” they ensure every baby has the best possible start to life, no matter the circumstances of their birth.
The Challenge
For many families in WA — whether living regionally, fleeing violence, experiencing homelessness, or facing sudden hardship — the arrival of a baby can feel overwhelming. Access to basic infant and maternal care essentials is often limited, leaving parents isolated and anxious at a critical time.
• Year Awarded: 2024
• Grant Amount: $20,000
Meridian’s grant enabled Little Things for Tiny Tots to expand the reach of their baby boxes, providing vital supplies to thousands of families across the state.
• Reached 7,000 families in 2024 — the charity’s most successful year yet.
• Partnered with 120+ community agencies to distribute baby boxes across WA.
• Provided not just material support, but reassurance to families that they are not alone or forgotten.
These boxes became more than essentials — they became symbols of hope, connection, and care during a fragile time.
With its growing network of partners and volunteers, Little Things for Tiny Tots is scaling its vision to reach even more families across WA. Meridian’s support has strengthened their ability to sustain impact and deepen connections with families who need it most.
“Together, we have nurtured hope for families and let them know that although they may be regional or remote, or fleeing violence, recently homeless, suffering unexpected job loss or experiencing social isolation, they are not alone and not forgotten.”— Anthea, Acting CEO, Little Things for Tiny Tots
