Athelstone Uniting Church co-coordinates the packing of goods for indigenous communities in northern and central Australia every June.
Packing Day is usually held at our Church on the first Sunday in June. This event is a chance for our church community to engage in some fellowship. All are welcome to join us in the camaraderie of the Packing Day.
We collect for the communities north of Darwin so require clothing and manchester that would be suitable for these tropical destinations.
Along with used goods, there are some new items that could be purchased – underwear, stationery, toiletries.
Goods can be dropped off at Church on Sunday mornings from April to May each year, or to our office on Tues and Thurs mornings. For alternative arrangements, please contact Jayne, via the Church Office, to arrange for them to be delivered and stored in the shed. If you have any questions please ask Jayne.
