Christmas allows most of us to spend valuable time with family and friends. It is important to spare a thought for those who will not be with their families this Christmas. This year thousands of Australian troops will be serving away from home during the holiday season.
To show your support of the troops this Christmas you can send them a Care package free through Australia Post. Australia Post allows free delivery for packages under 2kg to our soldiers on the front line.
When sending your parcel don’t forget to include a letter to the troops and by including a stamped self addressed envelope they can send a letter back to you. Parcels can be sent to “An Australian Soldier” or “An Australian Soldier – Female”. For something different you can send a Care package to one of the explosive detection dogs at “An Australian EDD Handler” but don’t forget to include a treat for the handler. All parcels should be sent to:

These organisations and many more are always looking for a spare pair of hands and can be contacted though Volunteering Gold Coast on 07 5526 2811.
