Unity Baskets (2023)


In 2023, as the rising cost of living continued to impact communities across the nation, the Unity Baskets movement set an ambitious goal: to build 250 hampers filled with essential items to support households during the Christmas season.

Recognising the increasing need for assistance, the movement aimed to provide relief to students and their families by delivering these food hampers. This effort sought to embody the true spirit of Christmas—compassion, generosity, and unwavering support for those in need.

The response to this initiative was overwhelming, with an outpouring of support from the community. Thanks to this collective effort, the original goal of 250 hampers was doubled, resulting in the creation of 500 hampers.

These hampers not only provided much-needed relief during the holiday season but also served as a powerful reminder of the strength and solidarity within the community when people come together to support one another.

“I was apart of the Shine Program if you remember. Today I received one of your hampers that was given out to kids in need. I just wanted to say thank you guys a lot. It’ll really help my family. You are all awesome and everything you do inspires me everyday to become a better person. Thank you all. ”
