My absolute favourite part of that pack is the sleeping bag. We can sleep anywhere, we are finally warm and it has been months since we have had a decent sleep.

Wrapping love around others
We are very thankful to receive these beautiful blankets, especially during the colder winter months. These blankets will be offered to women and families experiencing homelessness or financial hardship due to domestic violence and they will also be offered to families supporting children in care arrangements. Thank you for your ongoing support of our organisation and the work we do.” Worker from local support organisation.
Inspiring Wellbeing Beyond the Classroom
The mindful activities were really well received by our students and supported them in different ways either through regulation or through providing sensory input. They also prompted positive conversations with our students about mental health and wellbeing, which is so important. Our teachers also commented on how generous the team from JMC were and were really impressed with the positive impacts this had on our students. – Mark Oliphant College Wellbeing Leader
Warsaw Free Family Fun Day
On behalf of the team at People Matters Hackham West, I would like to thank you and your team for your amazing participation in our Warsaw Free Family Fun Day on March 28. It was a great day and very much enjoyed by our community. The feedback has been fantastic and your team can take credit for contributing to that community spirit, appreciation and enjoyment. This event is all about celebrating our local neighbourhood and providing a free day of fun, food, information and activities for families in our area. Support from local service providers like yours is what makes these community-building events possible. Your generosity helps us ensure that everyone in the community feels valued and included.
Thank you again for supporting our community.

Hygiene 4all
Lynne said, “We work closely with community organisations to help people who are in need of hygiene products. I know many people are going without the basics in life simply because they are so expensive. The more we can share around the higher the number of people that benefit from these products.”
Supporting Bereaved Community
“Receiving these toys brought genuine joy to children and families within our bereaved and broader South Australian community. The LEGO and girls’ toys and accessories provided comfort, distraction, and moments of happiness during incredibly difficult times. For many families, these gifts were more than toys.”
Roseworthy Rewards
I was so excited to complete my goals for this week. Because I completed my goals, I could pick a prize from the prize box. I chose the fluffy ear muffs.
Principal – This is a fantastic addition to the positive behaviour recognitions that we already do. The prizes students can pick from will certainly be a great incentive for them. As the year progresses, we will work closely with the SRC leaders to further build this into our school and look at different ways we can give these products away.
Me – We have already had a couple of disadvantaged students pick something out of the prize box for working towards and achieving their goals. *For privacy and consent, I cannot post pictures. Their faces said it all when they could pick anything they liked from it. We have many opportunities for students to demonstrate positive behaviour to come and pick something from the box. We will also put together some baskets of goods for students to take home – those that are disadvantaged and support them and their families.
Thank you!!

Best foot forward
Anne* said, these shoes will be going to families who are really struggling to make ends meet. Our ladies/families would never be able to buy brand named shoes for themselves or their children. Many of our families are struggling just to feed their children and pay their bills, many of our family’s frequent food aid charities just to feed their children every day. They have no money to luxuries, especially something as expensive as Nike shoes.
perfect fit
Crystal* said we are very great full for this donation, many of our families are struggling to afford a pair of shoes for their kids to go to school in at the best of times, so been able to receive these beautiful Nike shoes is just amazing. Many of these families can’t afford xmas presents so some of these shoes will be such a surprise for many older girls who may not have received any presents.
