Coast Shelter Charity Chest

Here at Erina Fair we believe everyone deserves to have a Merry Christmas.

For our fourth holiday season we are working with Coast Shelter to bring you the Charity Chest, an official drop-off zone for holiday gifts for those in need on the Coast. At Christmas, many Coasties are under extra financial and family strain. Coast Shelter refuges are at capacity, and more people than ever are trying to access Coast Shelter services, concerned about paying rent and affording food and essentials. If you would like to help by donating, you can do this at Erina Fair. 

When: Wednesday 4 December - Sunday 15 December 
Where: Outside Sunglass Hut at our Gift Wrapping Zone
Drop-off Hours: During Trade 

 Together, we can ensure that Coastie families can experience the magic of the season, creating cherished memories that last a lifetime.

How You Can Help:

Donate: Drop off your gifts at the Charity Chest outside Sunglass Hut at our Gift Wrapping Zone

Spread the Word: Share our mission with friends and family.

A few things to consider...

- Please consider donating for young people (16-24) and adults (24+) as every year we are overwhelmed with toys and gifts for young children and the older age groups get forgotten

- Please ensure items being donated are brand new, unused, and left unwrapped

- Please consider donating gift vouchers, as this means a parent can still enjoy shopping for their child, or a young person can purchase something they truly want this Christmas

Thank you for supporting Coast Shelter's Christmas Appeal for 2024! Your donation may be the only gift received this year by Coasties who may otherwise go without.
