St Patrick's College students deliver Easter Eggs

13 April 2017

Students from St Patrick’s College distributed Easter eggs to patients at St John of God Ballarat Hospital today. 

The students undertake various fundraising activities throughout the year as part of their involvement in the St Vincent’s Community Service Group at the college.  This gives the Year 9 and 12 boys the chance to give back to the community.  

St John of God Ballarat Hospital's Director of Mission Maureen Waddington said it is wonderful to see our young people supporting their community.

"It demonstrates their community spirit and willingness to give up some of their time to lend a hand to people in need," she said.
