Salvos toy drive appeal 2024

Salvos toy drive appeal 2024Donations can be made at all Newcastle Permanent branches

Christmas is just around the corner and with thousands of families expected to struggle to put presents under the tree this year, we are partnering with The Salvation Army and asking our community to spread some extra cheer by donating a gift to our annual Christmas Toy Drive Appeal.

Last year more than 7,000 gifts were donated at our branches across regional NSW and Queensland, and we are hoping to see that number increase again this year. 

Donations can be made at any Newcastle Permanent branch until Friday 13 December. Gifts should be new and unwrapped and are accepted for all ages, including teenagers.

If you would like to donate and are looking for suggestions, we recommend toys, books, and games for younger children, and gift vouchers, sports equipment and beauty products for teenagers. 
Your donation may be the only gift a child receives on Christmas morning, so we hope to bring a smile to their face as they unwrap their present!

Along with collecting for our Toy Drive, our people will be volunteering their time at the Salvos warehouse to sort all the generous gifts. Last year, we had more than 130 of our people lend a helping hand. 

Christmas is about giving and being kind to one another, so we are honoured to support the Salvos each year to help ensure every child can experience the joy of opening a present on Christmas morning.
