Hamper of Hope

Get your school involved in a hands-on way this Christmas by registering to be a part of the Hampers of Hope. Each bag is a chance for your students, families, or class groups to make a difference. Fill the bag with 8+ non-perishable food items, creating a complete hamper for someone doing it tough right now.

It’s simple:

Register below to order your hamper bags
We will confirm your registration and post the empty bags to your school
Use the handy shopping list of suggested items below
Fill bags as a class, family, or small group
We’ll be in contact to arrange collection of your donation (or a drop off location)

Let’s turn compassion into action — one hamper at a time!

Food and Gift Drive

Host a food and/or gift drive at school and ask your community to donate items that will bring some Christmas cheer to someone who might otherwise go without this holiday season.

In–school fundraising

Partner with the Salvos and host a fundraiser such as casual clothes day, barbecue, or perhaps add a fundraising element to your end of school year event. There are so many ways for your school to be involved in fundraising during Term 4. The collective impact of your school’s combined fundraising efforts can go a long way for people doing it tough right now.
Contact us to learn more and get involved.
