This Christmas, Ray White will continue its popular tradition of giving with the return of ‘A little Ray of giving’. The inspiring Christmas campaign will see Ray White Upper North Shore partner with the Lifeline Harbour to Hawkesbury Christmas Hamper Appeal to help disadvantaged people who may need a little extra light in their festive season.
The Ray White team are calling on the local community to embrace the giving season and dig deep for those in the local community who need it most.
“This is the second year that we’ve partnered with Lifeline and we want 2019 to be our biggest year yet. When you see our Christmas tree go up, we urge everyone who can to bring in a gift or food item for local families who are in need” said Director, Greg Windel.
The gift drive is a way to help put a smile on the face of anyone who may need some extra cheer at this time of year.
“All you need to do is bring in a gift, non-perishable food item, gift card or Christmas treat and drop it under the tree in any of our three office’s reception,” said Director, Matt Bolin.
Ray White Upper North Shore will be collecting gifts from 1 December at –
2 Turramurra Avenue, Turramurra
18 Railway Avenue, Wahroonga
Shop 2, 237 Mona Vale Road, St Ives
“It’s a really simple way to put a smile on the face of someone who might otherwise go without this Christmas,” said Director, David Walker adding that just a small gift can make the biggest difference to families who are struggling at an expensive time of year.
Ray White has run this initiative across Australia and New Zealand each December since 2012. Last year more than 300 offices across Australia and New Zealand helped raise 30,000 gifts for disadvantaged families this Christmas.

Higher interest rates are meant to bring inflation down. They also make new housing more expensive to build. The two largest policy forces acting on housing right now are pulling against each other. Importantly, established house prices are not included in the CPI. Housing inflation is instead driven by costs including rents, new dwelling construction … […]
