For most people Christmas is a time to celebrate and share in the magic of Christmas. However, for many families in our local community this time of year can be particularly tough. With increasing financial pressures being placed on families many face a difficult Christmas.
Each year Communify Qld in conjunction with Rotary conducts a food and toy drive to assist families experiencing financial hardship. We are asking local people to support this project by donating non perishable food items in the box provided.
With your help we can continue supporting families and individuals that would otherwise not have a Christmas meal or gift to give their children. All donations will go directly to families through food hampers, ensuring they are able to celebrate Christmas together.
Your donation will make a difference to someone’s Christmas.
You can find more info about Communify Qld’s programs at their website. Urban Grind will be endeavoring to do more with them in the future, and are glad to have found a local organisation that is servicing the social needs of Paddington and surrounding suburbs. It looks like they are doing great things, so if you have not heard of them please check out their website and look at ways that you might be able to help them to help those that need it in our community.

Hi, can you tell me what day the box will be collected from your shop?
Hey Carla,
I don’t actually know. I think it has been emptied about 3 times now. I guess the box will probably stay for another couple of weeks.
