2017 Mayor's Christmas Appeal recognition
20 February 2018

City of Mount Gambier Mayor Andrew Lee is pleased to recognise the generous donors who contributed to the 2017 Mount Gambier Community Mayor’s Christmas Appeal.

The appeal aims to raise much needed funds for distribution to local welfare agencies including the Salvation Army, St Vincent de Paul Society, Uniting Care Mount Gambier, ac.care and Lifeline South East who provided food hampers and other benefits to the less fortunate at Christmas in 2017.

“Now that we have collated the donations for 2017, I sincerely thank everyone who supported the cause. I’m particularly thankful for the ongoing support of Mount Gambier Central and the Men’s Shed for its donation of 100 toys,” Mayor Lee said.

“I also praise the general community for providing their spare change to support the appeal at the Mount Gambier Christmas Parade and Carols by Candlelight.”
