More than 380 Newington boys are due to descend upon the streets of Stanmore, Newtown and Enmore for the 2015 Red Shield Appeal Doorknock and we need your help!

If you have a couple of hours to spare and a car handy, come down to the Stanmore campus from 8:20 AM this Sunday, 31 May to help transport boys to and from their designated collecting zones for the annual door-to-door fundraiser. The boys usually travel in groups of four and collect from 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM. If however, you’re not much of an early riser but have a good idea of what to do at a barbeque, we also need people to help man the sizzling sausages for when our hungry volunteers return.

This is a great opportunity for our College community to come together as a team with boys, parents and staff working to assist the Salvos – arguably, Australia’s most well recognised and respected charitable organisations.

Your involvement will not only help the Salvos continue their work in helping Australia’s needy, you will make a powerful statement to our boys about the importance of giving to others. To assist with planning, volunteer drivers are asked to send their contact details to the Head of Service Learning, Mick Madden by email.
