Today we set out on an excursion to our local IGA . The reason for our trip was to purchase goods to create some share the dignity bags which is a fundraiser initiative being run at out local Bunnings. We set out with a shopping list if items needed for the bags we were gifting.

A little more about the initiative

“It’s in the Bag” is one of Australia’s most loved Christmas appeals, where we encourage everyday Australians to put together Adult, Teen or Mum and Bub bags filled with essential items, and maybe some everyday luxuries and a handwritten note, to donate to someone in need for Christmas.

Drop your “It’s in the Bag” donation to any Bunnings nationwide from the 10th – 26th November 2023, and your incredible donations will be distributed to over 3,000 charities nationwide by our dedicated volunteers.

This Christmas let’s ensure women, girls and those who menstruate, who are waking up in a domestic violence refuge or homeless shelter on Christmas feel a little bit of love and hope.

We wish to teach the children about caring for our community and how we can help those less fortunate with in our community as well as community spirt.
