Sharing the Dignity Donation Drive

Ms J Crowe. Teacher English, Yr 8 Advisor —

Share the Dignity are an organisation who seek to make a difference in the lives of women and girls experiencing homelessness, fleeing domestic violence or doing it tough. Part of this involves distributing sanitary items to those in need, and working to end period poverty in Australia.

#ItsInTheBag is Share the Dignity's annual event during the month of November where we put together bags filled with essential items, to donate to women and children in need during the holiday season. 

This year we collected 35 bags - a great effort!!!

  3. Add in some extra special additions and a handwritten note
