🎁Children's gift donations needed!🎁
The Vinnies Christmas Toy Shop has been open for 6 days. 84 families have been through, choosing gifts for 216 children.
It has been been a busy two weeks, with every day fully booked.
We have another 8 days of operations left, and they are nearly all booked up with families looking for Christmas assistance.
❗We are running very low on gifts!❗ If you're in a position to do so, please consider donating a gift to the Merry Vinnies toy shop.
(gifts for teenagers are the most needed).
Donations can be dropped off directly at the Vinnies Welfare and Support Hub - level 1, 207 Riddiford Street Newtown.
