The St Vincent’s Foundation in partnership with Caulfield Grammar and Rotary District 9800 donated, packed and distributed 780 bags of winter clothing and 780 bags of toiletries to ease the burden during the cold winter months in Melbourne and regional Victoria via the “Wrapped in Kindness” campaign.
We delivered our allocation of the donations to the following charities:
- Winter clothing to Youth Projects CBD who support young people experiencing homelessness
- Toiletries to Good Samaritan Inn Preston who provides short-term accommodation to women and children suffering domestic violence
- Toiletries to Exodus West Heidelberg who provide long-term support to families in necessitous circumstances.
Thanks to Rebecca and Neville John, David Jones, Neil Salvano, Alan Seale, Peter and Sue Duras, Frank O’Brien and Rohan Williams for playing our part in this great initiative.
