This Christmas, on the 23rd of December 2015 we are creating a Christmas Store (last Christmas we fed 600 at our Christmas Banquet but we are too large to continue with Banquets) and inviting five of our Social Workers to invite 20 families each to come along and shop for free. We have ordered from New World Eastridge 100 boneless Hams. The following Sponsors have agreed to supply:
- Christmas Box 200 Christmas Hampers
- PR Shop Groceries
- Hubbards Cereal
- Rice
- Abes Bagels for Crisps
- Two hundred kilo of mince
- Groceries from New World Eastridge and Southmall to compliment the mince
- Dessert Hampers from Gattings Caterers
- Disc Jockey
We have arranged on the night to have a Gattings Caterers Pamper Area for the mums to relax in, an Entertainment/BBQ area for the kids with their own DJ, and volunteers to drive the mums home with their groceries.
Scentre Group (Westfield Shopping Centres) have offered to supply their Mascot Monty for the evening, as well as donating their vouchers.
We have previously advised our database/supporters, that we need to realise $5,000 to pay for the 100 hams and so far we have had $3,000.00 donated … so that is 60 hams.
If you are able to support Breakfast Club in this venture (the only time we ask for donations during the year), please go to our Web Site www.breakfastclub.org.nz or contact me directly on 021 906 734 or on our Breakfast Club Facebook page, or email me on steve@breakfastclub.org.nz.
We are going to make Christmas in 2015 a memorable one for 100 families, and supply them with at least one week of food.
Any financial support that you can give would be greatly appreciated.
Steve
