Help children in need this Christmas
Every contribution, whether a gift, donation or helping hand, will make a difference.
The Bendigo Food Drive appeals to the South Coast community to help bring Christmas joy to about 100 children from underprivileged families between Hibberdene and Umtentweni.
Since 2021, the initiative has relied on community generosity to host a Christmas party for children who might otherwise miss out on the festive season’s simple pleasures.
This year’s Bendigo Food Drive Charity Christmas Party will take place at Port Shepstone Country Club on Saturday, December 12, in association with Tidy Towns Sea Park to Banana Beach, Nicks Inflatables and Budget Meals.
The day promises water slides, fun activities and festive entertainment.
Organisers have identified 63 children, 40 girls and 23 boys, who still need sponsors.
Every contribution, whether a gift, donation or helping hand, will make a difference.
Organisers are also appealing for donations of toys, puzzles, sensory toys, stationery, school shoes and bags.
To sponsor a child or assist with donations, contact Memory on 072-761-1736 or Cindy on 082-550-4368.
Donations can be dropped off at 4 Violet Road, Sunwich Port.
