Christmas Food Basket Collection

Hey guys,

Elim Church is collecting some food to come up with Christmas food baskets for the needy so they could have a nice Christmas too.

Last night, i was talking to Christine, and i had an idea to collect all the food and send it to Elim (dont worry - i wont take them for myself, i promise!). If any of you could kindly donate some food to the needy, it'll be greatly appreciated.

I dont mind coming around to your place to get the food, or you could give it to me, or you could just drop it off at Elim Church (ask me for the address if you need it).

The shopping list that we got given has the following:

  • reduced cream/ onion soup
  • 2x tinned fruit
  • asparagus tinned
  • pickles/ onions/ gherkins
  • mayonnaise/ salad dressing
  • tinned beans/ peas
  • tinned salmon/ tuna
  • tinned beetroot
  • 3 fizzy drinks 1.5L
  • sparkling graph 750ml
  • orange/ apple juice 3L
  • long life milk
  • tomato sauce
  • coffee - 100g
  • 2x tea - 100 bags
  • marmite/ vegemite
  • peanut butter 500gm
  • cheese spread 200gm
  • jam/ honey
  • block chocolate - family size
  • dinner mints
  • chocolate biscuits
  • flour (white)
  • sugar
  • rice
  • pasta
  • gravy mix packet
  • breakfast cereal
  • jelly x2/ puddings x2
  • craacker biscuits
  • lollies/ sweets
  • 2x chips 200gm
  • christmas dried fruit
  • christmas nuts
  • christmas cake
  • christmas pudding
  • mince pies (packet 12)
  • custard (packet 400gm)
  • christmas crackers
  • christmas serviettes
  • christmas chocolates
  • long life cream

........my my, what a long list it is! BUT, if everyone gave 1 or 2 items from the list, imagine how much it'll help the people to have a good Christmas...

I know we'll all have a good Christmas, but think about those who needs the food more than us, ok? Most of us will probably eat till we're way too bloated to even move, but think about the people who cant make ends meet, and they have kids to provide for?

so yes :) let's all do our bit for charity okay?
