Carols in the Domain

Woolworths Carols in the Domain

Each year The Salvation Army’s Oasis Youth Services Sydney descends on Woolworths Carols in The Domain with a small army of volunteers and 10,000 candle bags stocked with over $100 worth of donated goodies.

Woolworths Carols in the Domain is a partnership with The Salvation Army, spanning over 40 years and is an iconic Salvation Army fundraiser. Throughout these years the Salvos have raised more than $3 million through the sale of candle bags to help support Australians experiencing homelessness.

There are over 43,000 young people sleeping rough, couch-surfing or in unstable and unsafe living arrangements in Australia. Oasis provides crisis accommodation and medium to long term accommodation services to young people experiencing homelessness and adversity.

It costs just $40 for 4-meals and shelter for one night for one person in crisis accommodation, but most importantly it is also a safe place for young people to express themselves and build healthy relationships with adults; an experience that may not be all that familiar.
