Eldercare donations to support women experiencing hardship, homelessness or poverty this Christmas

Eldercare staff, volunteers and suppliers have donated 200 bags to Share the Dignity’s 2022 ‘It's in the Bag’ campaign to help women fleeing domestic violence or experiencing extreme hardship this Christmas.

The donated items and money raised were used to fill 200 gift bags containing personal hygiene products and essential items.

Many women who will receive an Eldercare gift bag this Christmas have fled domestic or family violence situations.

“As a White Ribbon accredited workplace, Eldercare is committed to ending violence against women and we are proud to support this annual Christmas appeal to help those who are experiencing homelessness or poverty,” said Eldercare Chief Executive Jane Pickering.

Eldercare would like to extend its sincere thanks and gratitude to the suppliers who made this incredible donation possible:

  • Bidfood: Australia’s leading distributor to the food service industry.
  • Healthcare Australia: HCA connects healthcare professionals, organisations, and people to provide end-to-end healthcare solutions as needed.
  • Chemist King Welland: Chemist King offers consumers the largest range of trusted brand name pharmacy, health, and beauty products at everyday low prices since 2008.
  • Altaira: National labour hire agency that provides experienced nurses, personal carers, allied health professionals and hospitality staff for both short- and long-term placements.
  • Extrastaff: Extrastaff are experts in providing casual and temporary workforce to organisations like Eldercare.
