The Perfect Gift and Down Syndrome Victoria

A special partnership has developed between The Perfect Gift Australia and Down Syndrome Victoria. Together, we share a vision that provides support, community and celebration for families welcoming a child with Down syndrome.
In 2019, Cathy Gibb, a Maternal Child Health Nurse, approached Down Syndrome Victoria with an idea to create a partnership. This collaboration aims to ensure that every family welcoming a child with Down syndrome receives a beautifully curated gift box, symbolising a warm welcome and heartfelt congratulations. Since its inception, over 100 ‘Perfect Gift’ hampers have been delivered to families across Victoria.
I cried opening our Perfect Gift. It was hand delivered by Sonia during our first meeting with her which was an added special touch. Receiving this gift box gave us comfort and reassurance that we had so much love and support out there. Every time I see something from our box it reminds me that we will be ok. THANK YOU! We may not know you, but we love you so much!
