A Merry Vinnies Christmas - Donate a Gift
A Merry Vinnies Christmas offers a shopping style experience to parents and families looking for assistance over the December period. This means giving people the dignity, ownership and choice over what they receive from us.
The Vinnies office will transform into a mini toy shop, where families can choose what presents they want for their children.
DONATE A GIFT: Throughout the month of November, we will be collecting gifts to full up our toy shop in time for December.
To make this possible we are calling on families, corporate teams, businesses, clubs and individuals to donate gifts.
GIFT CRITERIA:
> For ages 0 - 16 years
> Unwrapped
> New or near new condition
Please drop off donations to the Vinnies Newtown office: Level 1, 207 Riddiford Street, Newtown
🎅 The Vinnies Toy Shop will be open from Monday 3 December - more info to come. 🤶
