Support the Red Shield Appeal at Casuarina Square
Every 17 seconds, The Salvation Army extends a helping hand to someone in need — offering food, shelter, financial support, and hope. This year, Casuarina Square is proud to support the Red Shield Appeal by hosting a donation collection point outside Coles.
We invite our community to join in by donating essential items. These everyday items can make an extraordinary difference for families and individuals experiencing hardship or homelessness.
With rising living costs and the lasting impact of recent crises, your generosity matters more than ever. Together, we can help Australians move beyond the toughest times.
