GIVIT donation of the week: Art and craft supplies
Do you have art or craft supplies you could donate to children living in foster care? GIVIT works with a service that provides intense therapeutic support for foster kids in and out of home care. These children have experienced significant trauma and are facing multiple challenges. Engaging in arts and crafts can greatly help them cope and express their emotions in healthy ways. The service is seeking a range of items to support these kids and your donation of art and craft supplies can really make a difference in their lives. Generous Canberrans can donate art and craft supplies by visiting givit.org.au/whats-needed; search category: keyword ‘art and craft supplies’; location: ACT. GIVIT supports more than 400 charities and community groups across the Capital Region by matching your items with people who need them most.
