The Salvation Army’s annual Christmas Appeal brightens the hearts of those people who do it tough at this time of year, including here in the City of Logan.
Logan City Council employees have proudly supported the appeal for 21 years and this week donated toys, food, and other essentials to Logan Salvation Army Captain Ashley Biermann.
Mr Biermann said the donation was a great blessing that would change lives.
“Each year we have many people who are going to miss out on Christmas and for those people, we are just so thankful for the generosity of the Logan City Council,” Mr Biermann said.
“These amazing gifts are going to make a difference this year and will find their way to Logan families.
“That is the beautiful thing; we always make a decision wherever we are that we want to collect locally and also give locally.”
Council CEO Darren Scott said it was heart-warming to know the organisation had donated to the appeal for more than two decades.
“We hope for a great Christmas for everybody,” Mr Scott said.
Anyone else wishing to donate to the appeal can call 0448 685 580 or go to salvationarmy.org.au/logan/
