We're bringing the Giving Tree Program to our neighbourhood again this year.
The program gives you the opportunity to donate non-perishable goods to people who might be struggling.
We encourage community groups and council staff to participate in the program.
Download our flyers to remind you!
This is a great way to get into the spirit of giving! It makes a difference to people who might be feeling the additional strain or doing it tough at this time of the year.
Next time you're food shopping, pick up a couple of non-perishable food items and donate to the program. This is a very practical and helpful way ‘to give’.
Drop off goods at one of 18 Brimbank locations between Wednesday 28 November and Wednesday 12 December.
We'll work with local agencies to distribute donated items to community members in need.
