Support Stories
St John's Care would like to thank the individuals, parishes, social groups, and organisations who support us throughout the year. It is through your generous support that we are able to make a positive impact in the lives of so many. Below are some examples of the support we receive from the community.
Canberra Airport Group and The Snow Foundation
July 23: The Canberra Airport Group and The Snow Foundation have been long term supporters of SJC. They recently attended our Centre to assist us with unpacking donations, stacking shelves, and constructing our new vegetables gardens.
Governor General Visit
July 15th: We were thrilled to welcome the Governor-General of Australia to our Centre. Her Excellency spoke with staff, volunteers, and clients, restacked our shelves, and donated pantry items. She was kind, compassionate and humble, and showed she genuinely cared for the community.
​
We would like to thank Her Excellency and her staff for their visit and their support - it is greatly appreciated!
Bruce Super Convenience Store
May 22nd: Unfortunately Bruce Super Convenience store closed their shopfront over the weekend, however, Dejan and the team are busy moving their stock to a warehouse and will continue operating online.
St John's Care would like to sincerely thank Dejan who donated 1000's of dollars worth of food and other pantry items to us. His generosity and kindness means so much to us, and those who we are supporting in the community.
Elizabeth
May 6th: Meet Elizabeth. for her 9th birthday, Elizabeth asked her friends and family to provide her with pantry items instead of gifts so that she could donate the items to those in need. Today, Elizabeth visited the Centre to drop off the items.

We would like to sincerely thank Elizabeth for her support and wish her all the best for her future, her supports means the world to us!
