McAuley Care Packs

Throughout Term 2, the CMCB community generously donated items for McAuley Care Packs.

Community Generosity Supports McAuley Services for Women

Throughout Term 2, the Catherine McAuley College Bendigo community demonstrated the Mercy values of compassion and service by generously donating items for McAuley Care Packs. These care packs will be distributed through McAuley Services for Women, an organisation that supports women and children who have experienced family violence and homelessness, helping them to rebuild their lives with dignity, safety and hope.

The response from students, staff and families was outstanding, with a wonderful collection of essential items donated across the College. Every contribution will make a meaningful difference to those facing significant challenges.

A special congratulations goes to Mercy Homegroup 8J, who donated the greatest number of items during the collection drive. Their outstanding generosity and commitment to supporting others exemplify the spirit of our College community.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this important initiative. Together, we are making a positive difference in the lives of women and children in our local community.
