Christmas giving

Christmas call-out for coast kids

Beneficiary: SunnyKids and The Smith Family
Location: Sunshine Coast and Townsville,Australia

Christmas morning was one to remember in 2020, with the Hall team having donated more than $5,000 worth of gifts to at-risk children who may otherwise not have had anything awaiting them under the Christmas tree.

As part of the company’s inaugural ‘Hall Gift Haul’, team members were invited to donate toys, books or funds to Sunshine Coast charity SunnyKids. North Queensland workers also threw their support behind The Smith Family Townsville.

Hall management and staff compiled a range of bikes, scooters and skateboards as well as books, backpacks, sport and musical equipment, toys and vouchers.

SunnyKids provides thousands of nights of emergency accommodation, as well as counselling, domestic violence support, mentoring programs and more to vulnerable children, young people and their families each year. The Smith Family Townsville also supports disadvantaged children and young people and focuses on breaking the poverty cycle through education.
