Support Residents In Need This Christmas

Support Knox residents in need this Christmas by donating gifts for children and non-perishable food.

The donations will go to the Knox Community Christmas Support Project run through Infolink who will then distribute them to individuals and families in need.

Last year through the project, more than 900 people experiencing social and economic hardship were supported. This year, the demand is even higher with more individuals and families struggling to meet their basic needs.

Your donations will help bring dignity, joy and a sense of normality at Christmas.
