South Burnett Online is proud to be joining other local businesses in supporting this year’s Christmas Food Drive.
We all know there’s a lot of families doing it tough at present … rising prices at the supermarket, the cost of fuel, not to mention the fact the drought is starting to bite!
Let’s try to make it a happier Christmas for everyone in the community.
The organisers of the annual appeal are looking for these most-needed items:
- Spreads – jams, Vegemite, honey
- Foodstuffs – dry pasta, noodles, rice, sauces, coffee, tea, Milo, soft drinks, sugar
- Long life products – milk, juice, custard
- Canned food – meat, vegetables, fish, fruit
- Nibbles – chips, pretzels, nuts, lollies, chocolates
- Toiletries
- Baby products – nappies, wipes, baby food
- Christmas items – puddings, mince pies, shortbread, bon bons, candy canes, Christmas cakes, decorations
Please make sure the items are within their use-by dates and the packets are sealed!
Items can be dropped off in Kingaroy at:
- Bill Hull Car Centre, 11 Avoca St
- Kingaroy Shoppingworld (outside Woolworths)
- Peries IGA Kingaroy, cnr Avoca & Kingaroy Sts
- KCCI Business Hub, 195 Kingaroy St
- Ryke Fuel, cnr Youngman St & River Rd
- Burnett Today, 154-156 Haly St
