That's where the The Good Box come into play.
The Good Box is a social enterprise that creates beautifully packaged gift boxes for people experiencing homelessness in the country.
Co founders Gali Blacher and Maddy Jones said they work with charities like Mission Australia, Anglicare and Vinnies to keep the homeless community protected.
"We currently have 4000 orders from our charity partners who require our boxes which are filled with wonderful items such as a cap, hygiene items, food and some special gifts like beautifully smelling body wash," they said.
"Support is needed more than ever this holiday season because homelessness doesn't stop.
"We have had plenty of phone calls from charities from all over Australia who are in need of assistance for young people in need.

"These young people will be without their family due to domestic violence or family breakdown and they deserve a gift to cheer them up just like anyone else."
The boxes have special festive season messaging to remind the youth in need that they are cared about and someone out there is thinking about them.
Ms Jones said their work wouldn't be possible without donations from the public.
"We are inundated with requests right now to send through boxes for the holiday season and we just can't keep up with the need," Ms Blacher said.
"We really need further support from the community to help our friends in need.
