Student Leadership News- Social Justice Action Team
Thank you to all of those in the St. Brendan’s community who were able to contribute to the St Vincent De Paul Appeal. Your generosity was truly overwhelming in a wonderful way. All donations will be distributed to families and individuals in need in our local community in the coming weeks. Thank you to the SJAT/Mini Vinnies Team who coordinated the appeal, and delivered a HUGE amount of groceries to the church for our St Vincent De Paul Conference last week, to distribute. What an amazing effort by the SJAT and our community.
