Esperance Community Engagement
Christmas Giving 2023
In 2023 for our Christmas giving, the Smith Shearer team have chosen to support ECS Esperance Care Services Inc (ECS) with their ‘Back to School’ program.
It’s a wonderful initiative where ECS support those students at school who may be disadvantaged or experiencing financial hardship. The school provides ECS with the booklist for next year, and ECS organise their backpacks filled with supplies, all ready for the students to head ‘back to school’.
ECS would appreciate any support and donations received to help them fund the Back to School initiative. To find out how you can donate, reach out to Lynne at Esperance Care Services on (08) 9071 6310.
Each year the team at Smith Shearer come together to choose a charity or cause we'd like to personally contribute towards as part of our shared values of giving at Christmas time.
This year we have chosen to support Share the Dignity, by coming together to purchase materials for and make 6 bags to ensure women, girls and those who menstruate, who are waking up in a domestic violence refuge or homeless shelter on Christmas feel a little bit of love and hope.
