ST VINCENT de PAUL COLLECTION: CANS FOR COLOURED CLOTHES
Cans for Coloured Clothes day.
St Vincent de Paul Food Appeal
Thursday 19 September
Each year, as a school community, we support the efforts of our local chapter of St Vincent de Paul volunteers in their collection of food items to distribute to families in need in the Montmorency area.
We know that there are many calls on each of us to help these days but we believe in supporting such work in our own community and this long standing partnership means that the volunteers now depend on our ongoing commitment. In anticipation of a successful appeal, we thank you for your ongoing generosity.
Year Five/Six – Toilet Rolls and canned vegetables or canned fruit or cereal
Year Three/Four – coffee, tea, Milo, spreads, such as Jam or vegemite.
Prep/One/Two - pasta sauce, tinned fish or cans of soup
