Can
you give kindness this year to help support local families this Christmas?
We are proud to
support the Geelong Giving Tree Appeal again, in 2024.
Last year, the
Appeal supported more than 2,445 local residents, including 1,422 children,
helping to bring a little bit of joy on Christmas Day.
This Christmas, let’s unwrap the true
spirit of the season — kindness.
Meli, in partnership with The Sexual
Assault & Family Violence Centre, is calling on our community to donate to
the Geelong Giving Tree Appeal.
From now until December 10th, you can play
a part in bringing joy to those who need it most by donating or fundraising for
the Appeal.
To help spread kindness, from the 30
November, Geelong’s City Hall will be lighting up with images and messages of
kindness, as seen through the eyes of children from Meli kindergartens.
Together, let’s “Give Kindness this
Christmas” and fill our community with love and hope.
How your donation will help
