Beginning the “Lunches in Schools” Project
Hi Readers. We will be beginning the “Lunches in Schools” Project in September. We’ll be preparing and delivering free lunches to children in low decile schools who regularly arrive at school without lunch. Funds for these lunches will come from the sale of second-hand adult clothes and shoes from our Charity Shop, opening next Thursday (29th) at 24 John Street – hours 11am-3pm, Mon-Fri.
If any in this group has retail experience and can volunteer 4 hours, one day a week, it would be really great to hear from you.
