Wesley Mission Queensland is looking for individuals, families, businesses, and community groups who are interested in helping us out during late November and December 2020 with gift wrapping at Westfield Chermside Shopping Centre.    The gift wrapping is part of the Red Bag Appeal that gives a helping hand to the 500,000 people who are currently living below the poverty line in our local community.  Your support will give joy, hope, and a reason for people to celebrate!

To learn more about the Red Bag Appeal and Wesley Mission Queensland please visit our website.   

Volunteers are required to attend one of the four induction sessions available and volunteer for a minimum of two shifts.  Various shifts are available from late November to Christmas Eve.  

Since we will be manning the only wrapping public station in the shopping centre, everyone will be very busy!  All volunteers at our wrapping station will follow a COVID-19 safe work plan.

We also have limited free car parks available at Wesley Mission Queensland (directly across the road) for the volunteers who will be helping us out for more than 3 hours.  This will save on parking fees.  

As a volunteer with Wesley Mission Queensland, you will be helping us improve the lives of the most vulnerable in our community, and we appreciate your offer to donate your skills and time.

We look forward to hearing from you!

What Happens Next?
We ask that all people interested in becoming a volunteer read and understand the Volunteering Safely with WMQ Flyer. Once you have read this document and you are confident you would like to become a volunteer, please complete this quick online registration and we will be in touch with you during November. 

In the meantime, if you have any queries, do not hesitate to contact Stef our Community Fundraising and Events Coordinator on SRochford@wmq.org.au.

We look forward to hearing from you!
