Drakes finds nothing more rewarding than making a difference in the communities they operate in, and their Community Dollars Program is one way they regularly give back through local groups that operate in our communities, including ours on the Fleurieu south coast
South Coast Schools Ministry has a long relationship with Drakes, who supply, among other things, the delicious sausages we use for our BBQ fundraisers. So when they suggested we register as a charity supported through the Community Dollars Program we jumped at the chance
Now for every $2 you spend at Drakes you can have 1c accredited to us – supporting the wellbeing of our state schools students on the Fleurieu south coast. While that may sound small it quickly adds up meaning Drakes have donated over $17 million dollars, since January 2016 to participating not-for-profit organisations in their local communities. These now include us
There are two ways you can support us with your Drakes Community Dollars:
- Download the myDrakes App, link to South Coast Schools Ministry Support Group and scan when you shop
- Download the Drakes – SCSMSG card (PDF 164kb) and scan when you shop
