Vinnies Christmas Hampers

This year, as previously communicated,  we are again inviting all families to join in and make a difference to people’s lives, by donating food items to be made into Christmas Hampers and donated to St Vincent de Paul.  These hampers allow  people in our local community to feel the Joy of Christmas.

With 2.2 million people currently living below the poverty line in Australia, including over half a million children, your support allows the St Vincent de Paul Society to provide more than immediate help, it provides something much more valuable - the opportunity for a better life.

Please send all products to your child’s classroom where they will be collected and made into a Christmas Hampers for those in need at Christmas time.

We will be asking for donations of non-perishable food products so we can make up hampers for Christmas for the month of November.  To uphold the dignity of those receiving the goods, please ensure that all food items are not due to expire for 6 months.  All items must be non-perishable.  Food donations can include (but are not limited to) the
