Hampers for the Homeless

Hampers for the

Homeless

Boyce House has had a long tradition of service and supporting local charities in Toowoomba. This year, the Boyce boys are providing assistance to

St Vincent De Paul by taking donations through the Hamper Appeal.

Food and goods that we take for granted every day are being collected and donated by families to give to the homeless and less fortunate members of our local community. We hope that initiatives such as this teach our boys the importance of giving back to the community and that they will continue to contribute to society in positive ways later in their life. Assistant Head of Boyce House Boarding, Mr Brendan Doherty, is also a representative for St Vincent De Paul and has been thrilled with the boys’ generosity.

“It’s a challenging and difficult environment for families and individuals who are struggling financially or without homes, and this only becomes harder during the winter months,” said Mr Doherty.

“These gifts will make a difference in these people’s lives, and I am proud to be associated with both organisations.”

The “Hampers for the Homeless” will continue all year, and Boyce House will also assist with other events associated with St Vincent De Paul.
