Due to the impacts of COVID-19, this year we have made the difficult decision to cancel our annual Cathedral Banquet, which was to be held on Friday 30 October 2020.
In these uncertain times, it is unrealistic to plan for such a large event. Instead, we have turned our focus to the core reason for holding the Banquet – raising money to support those in our community doing it tough.
Since the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic started escalating, AnglicareSA has prioritised ensuring the continued delivery of our support services. Now more than ever, we are here for South Australians who need it most.
Your previous support of the Cathedral Banquet, which raises more than $180,000 each year, means:
- our emergency assistance centres can continue to provide food security, personal hygiene products, medication, blankets and referrals to other support services or counselling.
- our Thread Together vans can continue to provide dignity and pride through brand new clothes. This year we supported our 10,000th individual.
- our Turning Point program can continue to support young families in crisis and facing homelessness.
- our Star Bear grief counselling camps can support children who have lost a significant person in their life.
A big thank you to our past sponsors and attendees — all of this work is only possible because of your generous support.
We look forward to welcoming you again at the 2021 Cathedral Banquet. In the meantime, we welcome any donations (tax deductible) in lieu of Banquet tickets.
Thank you for supporting South Australians in need. Together we change lives.
