Salvation Army, Cranbourne, volunteers Marianne Kamien and Gordon Chippett are appealing to locals to ‘red bag’ their used goods as part of the organisation’s annual fundraising campaign.By Alison Noonan
THE Salvation Army is calling on Cranbourne residents to recycle their used goods in support of its annual Red Bag Campaign.
The red bags will be dropped in the letter box of residents, and they are available at a collection site at Centro Cranbourne Shopping Centre from 6 to 21 August.
Residents can fill the bags with clothing, bed linen, books, household items and toys.
The bags can then be dropped into the collection site in the shopping centre’s Centre Court, outside the Harris Scarfe store.
Larger items can be taken to the nearest Salvation Army Family Store.
Alternatively, residents can phone the Salvos to arrange collection of larger items.
For more information about the campaign, visit www.salvationarmy.com.au or phone 131 640.
