CFA, Salvation Army, and Pakenham Huskies Basketball Club joined forces for a heartwarming toy collection event at Cardinia Life Stadium from December 12-13.
The event brought the festive spirit to life with a special visit from Santa, who arrived in style, escorted by lights and sirens, to collect the incredible toy donations from the community.
Club members, children and parents contributed toys, non-perishable foods and toiletries, which will be donated to the Salvation Army to support disadvantaged families during the holiday season.
This collaborative effort highlighted the true spirit of giving, spreading joy to families in need and bringing the community together to celebrate Christmas.
