What will you be doing on Christmas Day?

17 Oct 2008
blog-clip2While many of us wait in anticipation for the festive season, Christmas can be a difficult time of year for people who are less advantaged, isolated and lonely.

That's why Mission Australia, with the help of over 400 volunteers, is running the 33rd annual West Australia Christmas Lunch in the Park, to give people who are less fortunate a chance to join in the celebrations.

This year we expect to cater for around 2,000 guests... all of whom will enjoy a traditional Christmas lunch, entertainment throughout the day and a gift from Santa.

An event of this scale relies heavily on the generosity and support of the public who donate their time and resources.  Volunteers greet our guests as they arrive, host tables and help Santa to distribute gifts, which are donated by the people of Western Australia. We also rely on donations from individuals and corporates to fund the event each year.

If you'd like to contribute to the success of the 2008 Christmas in the Park, either by becoming a volunteer or by making a donation, please visit the Christmas Lunch in the Park website - click here.

If you'd like to join us to celebrate - just turn up! Details for the day are also on the website.

We look forward to celebrating Christmas again with you this year.
