MERCY IN ACTION
What is it?
Many years ago at a P&F meeting, it was suggested that as a school community we may be able to assist families within our school in times of need, sadness and happiness,
i.e. illness, death in the family, birth of a baby etc.
It was decided that a simple way we could achieve this was to provide basic food items for families at these times. So Mercy In Action was established, it continues today as an extremely positive and successful program – a way to show we care for and support each other here at St. Monica’s School.
How does it work?
Families are asked to become part of the program by offering to donate a food item to be stored in our freezer, ready to be given when a need arises. Food items need only be basic, just like what you would have at home with your family. Our freezer, which is located in the canteen, was also kindly donated by a family at the school.
How can you help?
It’s easy, just fill in the form below and return it to school or email Wendy on
wmcintosh@smkangarooflat.catholic.edu.au
When a need arises we will contact you to provide an item for the freezer.
This is truly a worthwhile program, so please consider being part of it.
Thank you all for your support.
