This week we were blessed with multiple opportunities to celebrate our awesome volunteers, both those who volunteer at our Community Days in Braddon and at Salvostores across ACT/QBN. 🙌🙌

We wouldn’t hahe impact we have in the community without our awesome volunteer army who regularly show up and get to work serving our community. This pic was snapped 📷 at our Salvo Store Christmas devotion @ our Weaton store.

Today we’re celebrating one of everyone’s fave - the big yellow van @ OzHarvest Canberra! 🛻

Last month a small group of our volunteers, participants + community members were invited to a special dining experience at COMPA as a part of Oz Harvest’s CEO cook off. What a delight it was to see some of our everyday heros celebrated, all while money was raised to keep the dream alive fighting food insecurity and fostering connection in community.

We love the team @ Oz Harvest, this partnership ensures over 200+ a week are regularly cooked up and served to our community!

Once a month they close their restaurant to paying customers to host a free fee for people doing it tough in the city, and for friends connected to local Salvos + Vinnies programs.

Tonight we wrapped up with some extra Christmas cheer - featuring our own Shieldy mascot, and santa!

This year, The Salvation Army in Canberra and Queanbeyan are set to provide 1,000 bags of blessings across our area for households who are doing it tough this Christmas.

Christmas Cheer has looked different over the years, with hampers, toys and vouchers distribution, and we are so blessed as the community partners with us in ensuring Christmas remains a special time for all.

As a Christian organisation we remain deeply committed to the message that Jesus is a gift of presence over presents, and this message of hope continues to shine brightest in what we do.

In 2025 things will look different again – all of sites in the area are working together to provide a blessing bag and low value grocery voucher for every household, as well as toys for children up to 16 years, dependent on donations.

If you know someone doing it tough, encourage them to fill out the form via the QR code below or to drop in to one of our sites across the region before December 10.

We hand out fresh produce with support from community partners like OzHarvest, and our volunteers cook up a warm meal served @ 12.

On-site today we have
• Employment Plus
• NILS (No Interest Loans service) @ 11
• Doorways caseworker Kearsten
• AOD caseworkers Alex, Matt and Em.

Food relief charity OzHarvest Canberra says need for food is everywhere - but the public can support their mission to help vulnerable people.
