Christmas Hampers – Thank you!

Over the past term we have been supporting Kingsgrove Vinnies through our Christmas Appeal. As we embraced the Christmas season, our Ursuline motto Serviam – I will serve, challenged us to live out our faith through acts of love and service. The Vinnies Christmas Appeal offers a wonderful opportunity to put Serviam into action by supporting individuals and families who are struggling during this special time of year.

Vinnies Kingsgrove supports the vulnerable through a variety of essential services aimed at addressing both immediate needs and long-term challenges. They provide emergency relief such as food, clothing, and financial assistance to individuals and families in crisis, while also offering homelessness support through crisis accommodation and outreach programs.

Beyond direct aid, Vinnies is also committed to advocating for social justice and systemic change to combat the root causes of poverty and inequality. Through these efforts, Vinnies restores dignity and brings hope to the most vulnerable in our community.

In collaboration with OLF Primary school, we supplied over 35 hampers of groceries that will directly support our local families. We are delighted to share this letter of thanks from Vinnies with our community.
