Festive Food Drive for Vinnies

  • Dismantle 497 Newcastle Street West Perth, WA, 6005 Australia (map)

It's been a tough year and many are facing a challenging time over this festive period. So we've decided to inspire a little generosity with our friends at the Knights of the Southern Cross! We are calling for donations of non-perishable items and festive goods which we will pack into hampers for distribution by St Vincent de Paul to those in need. Sound familiar?!!

How does it work? Members of the community drive to our central location and drop off their items. We stack them into a large truck plus make up christmas hampers!

How can you help?
1)Donate hamper items: help us break our record
2)Register as an event volunteer: email kiru.thangadurai@rotaryeq.org
3)Share our event: we know there's plenty of food stored in pantries around town...

Items needed: Long life milk, Long life juice, Long life custard, Milo, tea, coffee, Ring pulled tinned fruit, Honey, jam, vegemite, Tomato sauce, Pasta and pasta sauce, Tinned ham (or Tuna), Rice, noodles and cereals, Christmas cake, Fruit mince pies, Biscuits, Candy canes, Bon-bons, Christmas napkins, Christmas paper or ribbon

We would love to receive your donations in person at our drive and drop event. But if you can't make it we can still arrange for one of our volunteers to collect from your workplace or home. For more details on how to join us in this please click on the Eventbrite link below.

We thank you for your interest in this event and hope you can help us in our mission to Inspire Generosity this festive season!
