The value of giving back to the community is instilled in students at St Paul’s Anglican Grammar School, and students evidenced that recently by collecting 1,818 cans for the 2022 Rotary Club of Traralgon’s ‘Give A Damn Give A Can’ appeal.

Junior School students gathered an impressive 1,418 cans, while secondary students contributed an extra 400 cans in their wish to assist people in need throughout our community.

To spark an extra element of fun for the cause, teachers established a friendly rivalry between classrooms to collect the highest number of cans.

Give a Damn Give a Can is a community food collection that has been operating for 29 years. Around 10,000 cans of canned food are collected annually by the Rotary Club of Traralgon and provided to the St Vincent De Paul Food Bank in Traralgon for distribution.
