Pakenham Campus student Milie Paterson (Year 11) made a very generous donation of 50 gifts for our Hope for Christmas Appeal, which will help bring Christmas joy to families in need in our community this December.

We have extended our Hope for Christmas Appeal until Tuesday December 6. Donations of Christmas gifts and non-perishable food items can be made at our campus and Little Beacons receptions, or students can bring them to our Beacon of Hope centres. Gifts could include books, puzzles, sports equipment, wooden toys, games or dolls. Food can be tinned goods, pasta, coffee, cereal, long life milk and muesli bars. Online donations can be made at: https://www.beaconhills.vic.edu.au/community/our-foundation/.

The appeal supports The Salvation Army, Follow Bless Collective, Casey North and Cranbourne Community Support and Information Service and St Vincent de Paul to provide gifts and food for local families.
