It’s In the Bag – Share the Dignity

 

This year, OC are once again participating in the It’s In the Bag donation drive for Share The Dignity

 

We encourage and invite our OC staff members to put together an Adult, Teen, or Mum and Bub bag filled with essential items, and maybe some everyday luxuries and a handwritten note, to donate to someone in need for Christmas. You could use a bag from home that is in good condition or find a bag someone would enjoy as part of your gift.

Example essential items include:

  • Shampoo & conditioner
  • Toothbrush & toothpaste
  • Bodywash or soap
  • Roll-on deodorant
  • Sealed packets of pads &/or tampons

 

Drop-off locations and a point of contact for each office will be:

Willunga – Tayla Holer

Kensington – Please drop to Eastwood or contact Astrid/Sally for collection

Lonsdale – Ellie Purton / drop off in meeting room

Henley Beach – Sally Johns / drop off in Fresh office

Eastwood – People & Culture / Teegan Edwards / drop off in Office 2

 

We will be collecting bags until Monday 27th November. Please reach out to your office contact or People & Culture if you have any questions.
