Doorknock this weekend!
Our annual Red Shield Appeal doorknock is this weekend, May 19-20. Please give generously when you see our collectors! It's not too late to volunteer. If you can give a few hours of your time, please register to collect for the doorknock.
A little kindness goes a long way
An new project has been launched to encourage Australians to perform 1 Million Acts of Kindness. The Salvos are part of this exciting movement and we'd like you to join too. For more information or to sign up, head to the 1 Million Acts website.
Passion for education
Once helped by the Salvos, Rebecca is a full-time teacher at The Salvation Army Oasis Youth Support Network in Sydney for homeless and disadvantaged young people. She says: “I truly believe education is the key to changing your life. I’m proof of that.” Read more in our latest On the Scene newsletter.
