The 2013 Giving Tree
by Luke Fuller | Jul 02,2014
The overwhelming compassion of Wenty Leagues’ Members has once again made a big
difference in the lives of those less fortunate this past Christmas. Over 385 presents were
placed under The Giving Tree which is a record high for the Club. The great care and generosity
showed by donors to complete strangers was a remarkable sight to see and very fitting with the
Christmas spirit.
The donated gifts were delivered to the Church of Christ Community Care Crisis Centre in
Pendle Hill. The centre helps women and children escaping domestic violence, or who
are homeless. Families can stay for up to 3 months in the short term refuge accommodation
while the workers aim to provide safe and secure housing and a friendly supportive environment.
While those who received your gifts were not able to thank you personally, they undoubtedly
appreciated every act of kindness.
Wenty Leagues would like to thank all those who helped spread the Christmas cheer
and supported this needy and worthy cause.
