Our Partners
Lighthouse Foundation
Lighthouse Foundation is a not-for-profit who provides young people who are homeless, or at risk of homelessness, with the care and support they need to heal, thrive and achieve a lifelong sense of belonging. Through community collaboration and their evidence-based Lighthouse Model of Care, they create therapeutic homes and deliver tailored support programs to transform the lives of young people. Their Lighthouse Homes, Foster and Family Care and In Community care environments ensure their support reaches the children and youth who need it, where they need it, for as long as they need it.
The Fathering Project
From July 01 - September 30, we are supporting The Fathering Project who transform children's lives by educating, supporting & empowering Dads. Australia is currently facing a crisis of absent, disengaged and ill-equipped fathers, with increasing rates of mental illness, suicide, domestic violence and social isolation. Children who grow up without a father are five times more likely to live in poverty and commit crime; nine times more likely to drop out of schools, and twenty times more likely to end up in prison. It's precisely why we've chosen to collaborate with The Fathering Project. We're dedicated to boosting their programs designed to guide and assist Dads. And what better timing than the run-up to Father's Day, allowing us to stand by those Dads and their kids facing challenges.
Beyond DV
From January to March, we supported Beyond DV, an organisation that provides long-term domestic violence recovery support for women and children in Australia. For every order placed, $2 will be donated to help survivors rebuild their self-confidence and reach their full potential. We're so pleased to be able to partner with this amazing organisation.
The Smith Family
We supported the Smith Family between October to December 2022. Hear from Karina Yewdall, Community Fundraising Manager at The Smith Family. "Thank you so much to The Neighbours Cellar team and their customers for supporting The Smith Family. The funds you’ve raised are enough to support the education of six Australian children living in disadvantage for an entire school year! The support you have helped provide will help these students feel included on the playground and engaged in the classroom, helping them create a better future for themselves."
