Bushfire Appeal – Backpack of Love
We are partnering with Generosity Church , Kiama in BACKPACK of LOVE.
What is BACKPACK of LOVE?
We will be Gathering Backpacks with Back to School necessities for children of bushfires. We have friends throughout the Bushfire affected area who are able to distribute Backpacks to families affected. Supplying Back to School Basics may just be one less thing for families to have to think about, as well as practically bring comfort to children who will be starting their school year of 2020 with NOTHING.
