KNB Mitre 10 Millicent has been ‘mighty helpful’ donating goods to ac.care to help vulnerable people as part of The SE Voice winter warmth community campaign.
The 14 staff donated a range of items including beanies, blankets, jackets, non-perishable groceries, sheets, socks and woollen gloves.
KNB Mitre 10 Millicent store manager Aaron McPherson said it was easy to ask staff to donate towards the initiative.
“We have got a lot of really generous and community-minded people in our store and I thought this is the sort of thing they would be happy to be involved in,” he said.
“We are very lucky to go home at night, have a roof over our head and be nice and warm because it has been a really cold winter so I feel for the people that are doing it tough.
“I hope what we have been able to supply does help and I hope people around the community do understand that our store and our people care.”
