From 8am until 4pm Saturday and Sunday, and 3pm to 7pm Tues, Thurs and Fri, the Beenleigh Scout Den will be open for people to come along and leave necessary donations for the flood victims.
Our group would like to focus on the family needs as well as the needs of those returning to school in the coming weeks. As some schools will be totally wiped out, and their resources reduced we are appealing to the greater Beenleigh area public to donate the following items.
- Back to school gear
- Books, pencils, lunchboxes, sporting equipment, hats, shoes and socks etc
- Toiletries
- Ladies sanitary items
- General hygene items - soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant etc
- Hand Santising Lotion
- Baby Items
- Tinned food, Nappies, baby powder, baby wipes, creams etc
- Cleaning Supplies
- Buckets, mops, bleach, mops, etc
- Washng Powders
- Insect Repellent
- Bottled Water
- Long Life Milk
- Sunscreen
- Tinned foods and fruit
We are asking the public to refrain from clothes at this time as we believe there is enough supply to accomodate. We certainly will not refuse it, but it will not be our priority,
What we need to assist us in this effort:
- Boxes
- Plastic Bags
- offers of transport to help get the items out to areas once we have been updated on the location to send too.
- Possibility of a second sorting area in the event we run out of room.
