Journey Early Learning at Kyneton has launched a food and gift drive to support local people doing it tough this Christmas.
The team is collecting donations of books, food and toys for the Kindness Collective in Kyneton, which will be made into hampers for families and individuals in need.
Journey Early Learning’s Kirsty Long said it was the second year the centre was taking part in a Christmas food and gift drive.
“We made a really big contribution last year and we hope that this year it will be even bigger by inviting the broader community to be involved as well as families here,” she said.
“These donations will go to people in the local community in need. It’s really beautiful to be part of that and we want to make this food and gift drive an annual event to continue that support.”
The Christmas food and gift drive is open to families of the centre and the broader community. Donations can be made any time during open hours (6.30am to 6.30pm) until Friday, November 29.
There are three donation boxes at Journey Early Learning’s reception area where people can contribute goods. They ask that donations are not gift-wrapped as they need to be identified at the Kindness Collective to ensure they can be donated to the appropriate person.
Journey Early Learning is located at Market Street, Kyneton.
