Helping to spread hope

The Red Shield Appeal is back for another year and the Salvation Army needs volunteers to help with their annual doorknock appeal.
The event is the organisation’s major fundraiser for the year and will run from 22 May to 4 June with all funds raised going towards a range of support services.
Salvation Army Fundraising Coordinator Leanne Harrison said there is plenty of need in Noosa and the Salvos will do what they can to support local people.
“But, we can’t do this without community support,” she said.
“There is an opportunity for you to give back to those that need hope where it is needed most in their lives by supporting the annual Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal. There are many ways you can support the work of the local Salvos. Get a team together and doorknock your local area, add your name to a roster for a community collection point at one of the various shopping centres across the Coast, hold a fundraising day yourself, or collect in your work place.”
Anyone interested in participating or volunteering for the Red Shield Appeal, phone Leanne on 0401 558 942.
