Corpus Christi Day is the College annual fundraising event, and a day of celebration. We trust that all students will be in attendance for this compulsory event. The fundraising of this event raises much needed funds for Lifelink Charities. The three Charities we are promoting this year are:
Shopfront: The Shopfront began in Maylands as the Church’s response to a growing number of people in Perth who came seeking its assistance. Shopfront is more than just a simple place of hospitality and sharing. As it also supports those in the community with needs related to homelessness, health issues and lack of food or finance.
Catholic Ministry for people who are deaf or hearing impaired: The Catholic Ministry for People who are Deaf or Hearing Impaired seeks to expand accessibility to deaf and hearing impaired people, and to educate the community on the needs of their clients
Daydawn Advocacy Centre: Daydawn Advocacy Centre helps and assists Aboriginal people who are at the risk of eviction from public or private housing or are experiencing homelessness.
We ask each student to purchase a $10.00 ticket which goes towards the expense associated with the day. The $10.00 ensures each student receives:Access to free activities during the Festival of Corpus
