Georgie’s Pantry has been busy gathering Christmas hampers for the 2024 season.
The pantry has already made 40 hampers to kick-off the Christmas season which will be delivered to people in the community free of charge.
With the pantry helping around 200 people every single week, the hampers play a vital role in ensuring people from around the district have a happy Christmas.
Georgie’s pantry has been running for over 10 years as one of the services that Anglicare Central West provides, along with a partnership from St George Anglican Church, with the goal of supporting people in need.
