Uniform donation for children in our nation! The NSW SES has officially launched our partnership with the charity Uniforms 4 Kids to turn former orange and blue uniforms into items for children and families in need such as clothing, hats, pencil cases, library bags and soft toys! This partnership allows us to further help the communities we serve while also supporting sustainability. To date, more than 55,000 items made by volunteers in the charity have been donated to domestic violence shelters, remote communities, families and children in need throughout Australia and in countries overseas. Anyone interested in getting involved can visit: www.uniforms4kids.com.au.
We were so grateful at Mary's House Services to be the first recipient of these beautiful clothes made from retiring Commissioner Carlene York APM ‘s uniform. Children staying at the refuge will be delighted with the story attached to them too.
Great launch and thank you for joining the Uniforms 4 Kids organisation. Looking forward to helping so many children with a need!
Incredible initiative, Deb!
I loved helping with this. Helped sort out all our old Blue Mountains Uniforms and send them to HQ for this. Such a good use for them.
