ST VINCENT DE PAUL WINTER HAMPER APPEAL
St Vincent de Paul Winter Hamper Appeal
Dear Sacred Heart Community,
This year St Vincent de Paul Society has been providing essential services
to help people address immediate basic needs in times of crisis. The
January bushfires and Covid-19 pandemic have meant that more people
than ever have needed to access these vital services.
St Vincent de Paul Society has once again asked if we could put together
some Hampers for the many disadvantaged in our community.
We will be asked to prepare hampers for families, single people and couples.
In years past we occasionally find we receive a lot of some items and an insufficient amount of others and so again have decided to allocate a ‘Wish List’ per year group. This is a guide only and we are very grateful for any contribution you are able to make to any of the following:
Kindy – warm items eg blankets, throws, scarves, socks
Yr 1 – sauces, soups, ready made meals in cans/packets
Yr 2 – canned vegetables, canned fruits and tuna
Yr 3 – toiletries eg razors, soap, shampoo, shaving cream
Yr 4 – pasta, rice, noodles
Yr 5 – warm items eg blankets, throws, scarves, socks
Yr 6 - Cleaning items eg dishwashing detergent, laundry soap
Collection baskets will be available in each classroom from Monday 1st June. They will be presented at the Sacred Heart Feast Day Mass on Friday 19th June.
Please give generously.
Kind Regards Sam Edwards (Acting REC) and Mary Lozina (Parent Educator)
