Every dollar raised by Carols by Candlelight goes toward supporting close to 2,000 families with children who are blind or have low vision.
Over the years, David has seen first hand how the funds raised have helped families and it's left a lasting impression on him.
"Vision Australia gives these children and their families accessibility to an amazing quality of education where they can learn how to read using braille and other techniques were technology has really advanced," David explained.
"We're giving power to these families to have a fuller life."
Sarah explained that she grew up watching Carols by Candlelight with her family "every year without fail" and this year will be no different.
"This year my family is having our Christmas party a little earlier so that they can come along to enjoy the Carols in person. It's such a delight!" she said.
Carols by Candlelight is equally as an exciting time for David. He reflected on his most memorable Carols moments from the years gone by.
"It's hard not to mention when I got to sing 'You'll Never Walk Alone' on stage with my own dad [Jimmy Barnes].
