Student Achievement
Oodie/Hoodie Raising Awareness of the Cold
22 June
Today Damascus College students wore their sports uniform topped with a Oodie/Hoodie to raise awareness of the huge number of people who are homeless and/or cold. This activity organised by the Damascus College Justice Action Group, supported by the SRC was part of the annual Winter Fundraising Appeal for the St Vincent de Paul Society.
The annual Winter Fundraising Appeal plays a vital role each year in enabling the good works of the St Vincent de Paul Society and, with our support, they hope to achieve a strong result to sustain the varied programs into the future.
A reminder that our casual day on Friday 24th June, the last day of term, offers a chance to do more. Damascus students and staff are asked to help keep Ballarat’s most needy warm this winter with a donation of the smallest note in Australian currency is $5. It is the lowest amount that is considered significant enough to have as a note in our country. This is the beginning of significance. Please, if you can give a significant donation of $5 on the last day of term for the St Vinnies Winter Appeal.
