🎁 How to Donate — Help Make Christmas Brighter
Every donation helps bring joy to children and families doing it tough this holiday season. Whether it's a toy, a treasure, or a generous gesture — 100% of what we raise goes to the Salvos Christmas Appeal.
Toy & cash donates are more than welcome on the weekend of the event, just catch-up with us at one of the locations where we stop!
Can't make it on the day?
🧸 Toy Donations
Toys can be dropped off — new or used (in good, clean condition) — at the Community Bank Capel (Bendigo Bank) starting mid-November 2025.
If you're donating a large quantity of toys, please reach out via the Contact Us tab and we’ll do our best to arrange collection.
💎 Higher-Value Items
Got something extra special?
Items of greater value may be auctioned or raffled during the event weekend to raise additional funds for the Appeal.
🧑💼 Business owners: If you’d like to donate a raffle or auction item, hit that Contact Us tab — we’d love to showcase your support!
💵 Cash or Bank Transfer Donations
Monetary donations are also welcome and go directly toward supporting the Salvos Christmas Appeal.
Please use the Contact Us tab if you’d like to donate via bank transfer — we’ll provide all the details you need & a receipt from the Salvos can be provided upon request.
🙏 Thank You
Every donation — big or small — makes a difference.
Together, we’re bringing hope, joy, and support to those who need it most in our South West communities.
