Wondering where our birthing kits went?
 
We recently received news that our 3,000 birthing kits packed in May have been distributed by the Birthing Kit Foundation Australia through their overseas partners. The table below provides a summary of exactly where they went. Thank you again to everyone involved in supporting this great cause!

Vinnies Night Patrol - 25 June

Vinnies Night Patrol update - changes from 1 July
 
Are you are involved in supporting the Vinnies Night Patrol? From 1 July there are a number of changes happening.
 
The primary one for our teams is that the route for van 2 (our van) will change one of its venues. We will continue stopping at the Queanbeyan Visitors Centre but will replace 'the Cube' in the city with Veteran's Park. There is also a likelihood that hot food will be served on a trial basis a few nights per week.  
 
These are among a series of changes being made to better help Canberra's homeless community.  
 
For full details and some more information, refer to the Vinnies June update flyer here.
