‘Magic of the season’: SkyCity Adelaide gets behind The Advertiser Foundation Kids’ Appeal with huge donation

With Christmas approaching, SkyCity Adelaide has partnered with The Advertiser Foundation Kids Appeal to bring joy to children in need.

With Christmas right around the corner, SkyCity Adelaide is getting into the festive spirit by giving back to children in need.

The business has thrown their support behind The Advertiser Christmas Kids Appeal, donating presents to vulnerable children and a “generous cash donation” to fund programs at KickStart For Kids.

Managing Director Avril Baynes said it was about ensuring “every child experiences the magic of the season.”

“The holiday season is a time for joy and generosity, but some families face challenges that can make this time of year especially difficult,” she said.

“This Christmas, SkyCity’s providing funding to KickStart for Kids’ breakfast and lunch program so that disadvantaged children can focus on their education without the burden of hunger.

“Meanwhile, our employees are generously donating gifts to those in need.”

Committed to supporting the community, SkyCity Adelaide has partnered with The Advertiser Foundation for this year’s appeal.

Head of The Advertiser Foundation Dan Demaria commended the genorisity of SkyCity “who have not only donated cash but their staff have taken the time to buy and wrap presents for the kids.”

KickStart For Kids founder Ian Steel was “very grateful” for their donation which will help make Christmas “one that they’ll be able to remember” for kids doing it tough.

Earlier this year, SkyCity presented the KickStart for Kids Against Period Poverty event at Sol Rooftop, using ticket sale profits to provide sanitary items to local and regional schools.
