Cleaning out your kids’ cupboards these holidays?
If you happen to have any used Grobags in your pile of old baby clothes, then, please, consider donating them this Christmas.
Melbourne charity St Kilda Mums are on the hunt for pre-loved Grobags (in good nick) to include in their Baby Linen Sets, which are passed on to families right around Victoria who are in need.
Everyone deserves a safer night’s sleep
The Gro Company generously donated 100 Grobags to the St Kilda Mums warehouse. However, the charity still has a long way to go before it can reach its goal.
With more than 12,000 struggling Victorian families – including refugee families and asylum seekers – in need of basic safe sleep essentials for their little ones, St Kilda Mums is asking parents to get involved.
“Our vision is a future where we waste less, share more and care for every child,” says Jessica Macpherson, CEO of St Kilda Mums.
