About Us
Im Sheena from Sharing The Love Homeless Backpack Winter Relief Appeal 2019 Yet again this year there will be thousands of homeless sleeping on the streets this winter without suitable food, shelter or clothing. Sadly some of our local homeless neighbours in Brisbane and logan areas will die before winter ends because of simple food and clothing items most of us take for granted. So this year we would love for you to be a part of our sharing the love winter relief appeal by supporting our fundraising efforts of putting together 500 backpack winter relief care packages to give out to the homeless in late May right before the cooler weather hits this year. To show your support we are asking if you can kindly donate a few backpacks please or you could put a donation collection box or money tin in the office to give the opportunity for your colleagues and customer's to warm some hearts this winter if you like ?? In each backpack winter relief care package we hope to include Non perishable food, hi protein snacks, lunch or coffee vouchers Winter clothing Hats, socks, beanies, gloves, singlets, scarves and shoes Hooded waterproof poncho Towell and facewasher 1 man tent, swag, yoga mat, blanket or sleeping bag Set of plastic dinnerware and cutlery for 1 including a plastic plate, cup, bowl, knife, fork, spoon and a can opener Personal care items including soap or medicated body wash, shampoo, conditioner, brush or comb, disposable razors, feminine hygiene sanitary products, roll on deoderant, toothbrush, toothpaste, hand sanitisers, sun screen, chapsticks, baby or cleansing wipes, tissues, bandaids, disinfectant cream, talcum powder, cough drops or barley sugar A letter of kindness letting the received know someone cares with a list of local free welfare and community groups, soup kitchens, free homeless food and clothing, free legal and mental health support, emergency housing and shelters etc.. Together we can share the love and make this winter less cold and miserable for those who need it most. Please show you amazing support by donation of products, samples, discontinued lines, meal or coffee vouchers, wool for knitting beanies etc anything at all suitable for our homeless backpacks would be greatly appreciated by many this winter Sheena Douthie Sharing the love backpack winter relief appeal 2019 Donation Collection Points Crestmead, Marsden, Mount Gravatt, Jimboomba, Brassall, Tanah Merah and Flagstone https://www.facebook.com/events/366833727484554/?ti=as https://www.facebook.com/groups/1775589795883951/permalink/1845246665584930/
