AUSTRALIA: ST. VINCENT'S SOCIETY COLLECTS MONEY FOR FLOOD VICTIMS

Diocese of Parramatta report:
St Vincent de Paul Society Queensland has opened its Vinnies Christmas Flood Appeal in response to the plight of people who have had their homes damaged and lost so many of their personal belongings in the recent flooding.

Catholic Diocese of Parramatta Social Justice Co-ordinator Evan Ellis said the floods in Queensland have taken lives, destroyed houses, ruined crops, damaged infrastructure and disrupted regional economies.

"Your donation to the Flood Appeal will enable Vinnies to provide emergency assistance and support to these communities as they rebuild their lives and livelihoods," Evan said.
