To assist the Rotary Club of Central Melbourne to mark the Festive Season, we ask members and friends to make up Christmas Hampers for the less fortunate people in our community.  We will be providing hampers for two groups of disadvantaged people:

  • the homeless and youth through Steps Outreach Service 

  • refugee families through Lentara Uniting Asylum Seeker Project

We will supply red hamper bags for Steps Outreach Service recipients and red bags with green ribbons for the Lentara recipients.  The following lists are suggestions of non-perishable food and other items for your hamper bag donations.

In response to feedback received, the Community Service Team would also like to offer to purchase groceries on a member's behalf for the cost of $45 per hamper.

Please let Alison Chan (alisonchan100@hotmail.com, 0415-525-678) how many hamper bags that you would like to donate and whether you would like the Community Service Team to purchase the hamper(s) on your behalf by Tuesday 1st December.

A member of the Community Service Team will then contact you to arrange a time to deliver empty bag(s) to your house and collect your donation prior to Monday 14th December.

Thank you in advance for your donations and have a great festive season.
