Gifts of hope sought for Salvation Army appeal
Gifts that provide hope and the opportunity to change lives are the focus of this year’s Salvation Army Christmas Appeal.
Salvation Army spokesman Major Alister Irwin said “gifts of hope” range from $30 for a surprise under the tree or practical aid such as food support through to $240 to help a family into accommodation. Other gifts provide help such as counselling, financial mentoring, wraparound care and access to early childhood education or our Positive Lifestyle Programme.
There is also a “choice” gift where people can decide for themselves how much they’d like to donate.
