Hi! I'm Phoebe Azzopardi, a Year 8 student in Homestead 1. I am collecting toiletries for an organisation called Pinchapoo.

Now, what is Pinchapoo, you ask? It is a group of people collecting donations of toiletries to create hampers for the 1 in 6 Australian families who choose between buying food and personal hygiene products each week.

There is a box at Reception to place all of the items, and I hope to have all toiletries donated by Friday 4 December. It's an effortless way to help out the less fortunate – all you need to do is pick up an extra toothbrush, toothpaste, or some other toiletries when you go shopping. 

Please only donate unopened items and a mix of adult and children products.

Please donate any items from the list below:

• Toothpaste 
• Toothbrush 
• Shampoo
• Conditioner 
• 2 in 1 Shampoo and conditioner 
• Soap
• Body wash
• Moisturiser 
• Hair ties
• Brushes
• Combs
• Deodorant roll on
• Razors
• Lip balm
• Sanitary items 
• Baby wipes
• Hand sanitiser 
• Cotton tips
• Cotton balls
• Face washers 
• Sunscreen 
• Pocket tissues
• Toilet paper

Thank you to everyone who has already donated and thank you in advance to those people who donate in the future.
