Are you able to help out by purchasing some items for Formally Ever After Qld Inc. off of this list or by going through your wardrobe? There are drop off centres or items can be posted. You can also donate $$$ which helps students attend their formal. ❤️✨❤️
Wish list for Formally Ever After Qld please
These are a few things we are running low on , so if you can help with any we'd really appreciate it 🧡
They can be new or secondhand
If secondhand they need to be in good to great condition please 🙏
Did you know I see alot of young people who honestly can't buy socks or shoes .
Some say it's only $20 , but $20 can be bread for a week
Families who are struggling are actually stretching their dollar to the max , there is nothing left and they are borrowing from money they don't have :(
I grew up with a single mum & I've been a single mum myself and I truly struggled to make ends meet .
I remember one Christmas , I didn't even have $30 to spend per person , I felt absolutely devastated and like the worst mum that I couldn't give my kids what they wanted and needed . I was constantly at food banks trying to make the very little money I had stretch
I once had 2 young men come here and i only had one pair of shoes left that fit them. The student that picked them first gave them to his mate , so his mate would have nice shoes for formal. He was willing to give up the shoes he just found for his mate, this made my heart overflow . I bought that young man a pair of new shoes out of my own money 🧡
I saw the happiness last week when a young person left with new socks . He was telling me he has no good socks, so i asked him to take a few pairs 🧡
So if you can help in anyway by purchasing one item or donating one item please do this
You'll make a student so happy
