Junior Joeys News

Junior Joeys have been hard at work learning about the Australian Organisation, Caritas. Caritas works hand in hand with the most marginalised communities in Australia and overseas, to confront the challenges of poverty.

For the past fortnight, we have been diving into the ‘see’ part of the see, think, do model, and learning about poverty, and some of the people that Caritas supports. One of the stories that stood out to us was Thu’s story.

Thu’s Story

Thu lost his leg after stepping on a landmine in Vietnam. With the generosity of donations to Caritas, Thu can now earn extra income and support his wife as she recovers from a stroke.

We encourage anyone who would be interested in joining the good works of Junior Joey's, to come along to our next meeting!
