Residents urged to donate a gift to the Mayor’s Giving Box
12 Dec 11
Shoalhaven City Council is encouraging local residents to spare a thought for those less fortunate this Christmas by donating a gift to the Mayor’s Giving Box.
Located within Stockland Nowra, the Mayor’s Giving Box provides the community with an opportunity to help provide some much needed Christmas cheer to local residents who may have fallen upon tough times.
“Christmas is a special time in which we gather with family and loved ones to celebrate the festive season,” said Mayor, Paul Green.
“It’s an unfortunate reality that through any number of reasons, many families will struggle to provide gifts to their loved ones at this special time of the year.
“By donating to the Mayor’s Giving Box residents can ensure a young child who may have otherwise missed out on a present receives a special gift when they wake Christmas morning.”
“I would encourage local residents to spare a thought for those less fortunate and donate to the Mayor’s Giving Box at Stockland Nowra this Christmas.”
All gifts received through the Mayor’s Giving Box will be donated to a host of local charities before being distributed throughout the area.
