Carevan “Baketown”

What are Carevan volunteers made of?
(We know what they are made of!)
Sugar and spice
And everything nice

Thank you Carevan Blacktown volunteers, family and friends for generously giving of your time, baking skills and BBQing expertise this weekend.

We are the very grateful recipients of many crates of food and grocery items collected by our green team in conjunction with the Blacktown Ponds Lions Club Inc.(thank you Espie & Joe) This goodness will go straight into grocery hampers on Tuesday evenings and is lovely community care and involvement ~ so many generous people among us – donating a tin or two or a trolley load ????

Our tireless team then got busy baking and BBQing on Sunday to raise much needed funds to keep the wheels turning and the lights on at Carevan B’town HQ ~ what better way then to raise precious funds by turning our hands, spoons and tongs to sugar pots and sauce bottles, making lunch and afternoon tea, sweet treats and savoury delish for the local community at Bunnings Rouse Hill. ????

We have some seriously good bakers among our amazing volunteers, families and friends ~ onion carvers, sausage flippers and slice makers – with all kinds of dietary needs and tastes catered for – Our Carevan ‘Bake-town’ team sold vegan cake cupcakes at one table and salty, saucy sausage sandwiches across the way at another ~ winking cakes, pretty pink slices, mars bars treats, biccies, savoury and sweet ~ and so much more – thank you all ????

Thank you all – food collectors, bakers and BBQers – we can’t do our thing without you and your generous donation of time to help others is nicer still than the cakes and sausages – and that’s saying something!!

Lastly – Thank you to Dom and the Rouse Hill Bunnings team – lovely people all ~ these are fun, proactive community engagements for our charity and our volunteers ~ A simple yet super way to raise funds to support people in need.

We are truly grateful to everyone ! ????
