The Giving Tree
I would like to take this opportunity in this first edition of the Valley Voice for 2014 to sincerely thank all the generous people in St Marys and surrounding areas, for the wonderful response to my request for donations to the Giving Tree set up at my salon for Christmas.
What a huge amount of gifts were given. It never ceases to amaze me at the generosity of the residents of this lovely community.
Thanks must also go to Thom Ryan from Anglicare and Melanie Norton from The salvation Army for their efforts in distributing all the gifts. I am sure there were many families who benefited at Christmas as a result of over one hundred gifted donations.
Thank you one and all and I am hoping to do it all again this Christmas.
Many thanks,
Ana, Eric, Lily-Mae and Casey,
Ana’s Hairdressing Salon.
Members would like to express our sincere gratitude to Diana Foster who, by her own volition and with no solicitation from any of our members, wrote to the Examiner with a story of the Guild’s theft which has led to the many donations and well wishes from all corners of the state.
A thank you to Veronica Jupp from St Helens Books Café, Rita and Ian Summers, Surf Coast Realty, Mad Mudd, River and Willow, Peter and Bev Rubenach, the Wildlife Carers from St Marys, the Valley Voice and to all the people who have donated anonymously.
A special thank you to police officer John Chandler whose professionalism has been exemplary and who has kept us continually informed, and to the Break O’Day Council.
We apologise if we have left anyone out – it would not be intentional.
Finally, many thanks to all who have bought one of our raffle tickets from trusty ticket seller Lorraine Gill.
