P&F Christmas Hamper Raffle

10 November 2022

Every year our school community supports several Catholic organisations and charities through fundraising activities – giving us opportunities to put our faith into practice. As a College we aim to strike a balance of supporting these worthy causes and not putting undue pressure on our own families.

Following on from correspondence sent at the end of Term 3 2022, you are invited to make a small contribution to help families in the Midland community who are experiencing hard times enjoy a little something special during the Christmas season.

If you can, your contribution to the following appeals will make a big difference to the lives of those in need:

  1. 2022 Christmas Vinnies Appeal – $5 donation per family to support Christmas gifts for local children
  2. 2022 Christmas Vinnies Appeal – one item per family of non-perishable food (PCAs have a list of food items most needed by Vinnies)
  3. 2022 Christmas Lifelink Appeal – one item per family for the P&F Christmas Hampers to raffle off at our College Christmas Carols event.

The P&F will be preparing four themed hampers for the raffle and have allocated items by House for families to donate.

  • Summer Nibbles – La Salle and Mutien
  • Christmas – Benildus and MacKillop
  • Beauty and Wellness – Brigid and Solomon
  • Family Holiday Fun – Jordan and McCormack

Christmas Hamper items can be dropped off in Building J05 by Friday 26 November 2022.
