Barnardos Christmas Appeal – Gifts for Teenagers

Dear Wyvern Parents,

We will once again be supporting Barnardos Gifts for Kids for our Wyvern Christmas Appeal and this year Barnardos has made a special request from us to support ‘Teenagers’.

Barnardos are now caring for more teenagers than ever before, and Christmas is a particularly difficult time for them. Christmas should be one of the happiest days of the year, a day surrounded by family, filled with love and the excitement of a gift. Unfortunately, tens of thousands of Australian teenagers live in disadvantaged households, and Christmas can be a day filled with disappointment and confusion when they wake to find no gifts or special food on the table.

So this year we will be supporting ‘Teenagers Only’ so that they too can feel the love we have for giving to those less fortunate.

Each year we are constantly amazed with your generosity to support families less fortunate and once again we are seeking your support, but for teenagers only. In order to make a difference we are asking that you donate Gift Cards & Vouchers ONLY. 

As of next Tuesday, 11th September we will place a Christmas Box in the Office Foyer with a slot in the lid for you to place your donation. All donations need to be made by the end of October. This will enable Barnardos to ensure timely distribution of gift cards and vouchers for Christmas.

We thank you in advance for your wonderful support of this incredible cause and know that your generosity will definitely make a difference to these young people this Christmas.
