WELL it was a close shave, but we got there. With some last minute donations, we sincerely hope that none of the 80 Ipswich families listed in this year s Queensland Times Adopt a Family for Christmas campaign will go without this year. The Ipswich community put in a phenomenal effort to come to the rescue of the battling mums, dads, grandparents and kids who would have had a very difficult Christmas otherwise. The Base Support Services at Goodna still had two large families left to adopt this week, and it was great to see some final donations come in to ensure they would not miss out.

AS WE edge ever closer to Christmas it has been great to see the many examples of generosity in the community.
Our Adopt a Family Appeal is down to the last four families, which is great considering we started off with 80 families only a few weeks ago, and the feedback from local charities is that the amount of support out there is as high as ever, despite what has been a challenging year.
We are determined to help The Base Support Services in Goodna find help for the remaining four families, so if you can assist, please check out this free story and get in contact with them.

Subscriber only THE IPSWICH community has responded magnificently to this year s Queensland Times Adopt a Family for Christmas appeal, but there is just one challenge left before we can celebrate. The Base Support Services at Goodna is our final charity organisation left with families to help ahead of Christmas. The QT’s Adopt a Family for Christmas Campaign is back for 2020 and we are asking the community for their support. The good news is that out of the 80 families in need that we started the campaign with a few weeks ago, we are now down to just four.
