What our network loves about A Little Ray of Giving ?
“ We are so excited to be participating in A Little Ray of Giving again this year ! We are again hosting our major fundraiser ' Night under the Stars ', which this year was held on Friday , 24 November here in Lyndoch .
“ It ' s really hard to pick just one of our favourite things about the campaign . As a team , we love not only the lead up to our event and chatting with the community to receive donations , but also during the event seeing how many from our local community come out and join in on the fun , and then lastly leading through to handing the donation over to our chosen charity , Backpacks 4 SA Kids .
“ We are always looking at ways to give back to our community , and we love that we can do such a positive thing with Ray White , and being able to give back to a deserving charity . By holding our yearly major fundraising event in our local community , it brings so much to the community and our office here in Lyndoch .”

“ For the past two years the Wellington City Office has participated in A Little Ray Of Giving and delighted to have won both times for the most gifts collected . The whole office has got behind it along with friends and family , either buying gifts or non-perishable foods or donating money and then a team of us go on a shopping spree . There have been so many donations that the gifts don ’ t fit under the tree and fill our reception area . It ’ s a beautiful sight !
“ Previously we have chosen two Wellington charities - RMHouse and The City Mission , this year we are aligning ourselves with just Ronald McDonald House complimenting the Ray White sponsorship . Our office has decided going forward that this is the charity we will support and become more involved with .
“ There ’ s nothing like a competition to spur us on , but whether we win or not , it ’ s an absolute joy dropping off the gifts and food donations and an amazing feel-good moment . I recommend all offices get behind this year ' s ‘ A Little Ray of Giving ’, it ' s such a worthy campaign and you will feel fantastic giving back to the community . I challenge you to beat us with the number of gifts donated !”

“ Every year , since its inception , our office has eagerly embraced the spirit of giving through the A Little Ray of Giving campaign . It ' s a tradition we hold close to our hearts as we decorate our workspace and collect gifts to support local charities in Queenstown and Arrowtown .
“ Our office gets involved in the A Little Ray of Giving campaign every year because we strongly believe in the power of helping others and bringing joy to those in need , especially during the holiday season . Our employees and local community look forward to collecting toys , books and other gift items for children from underprivileged backgrounds . It always warms our hearts to see the kindness of our local community and the smiles on people ’ s faces when we are able to help out .
“ This year ’ s A Little Ray of Giving at Ray White Queanbeyan | Jerrabomberra , we are excited to spread some joy and happiness to others , especially during these difficult times . This is one of the most meaningful things we can do . We look forward to connecting with our community and helping however we can , whether that ' s donating goods , volunteering our time , or simply sharing the word .
“ Acts of kindness have a way of reminding us what truly matters in life , and we can ' t wait to be a part of the positivity this holiday season .”
Lilly Harris , Ray White Queanbeyan | Jerrabomberra , ACT
“ What we cherish most about the A Little Ray of Giving campaign is the opportunity it provides to make a real difference in our community . Queenstown , often seen as a well-off area , still has families who are quietly struggling with the rising cost of living . We see this campaign as a chance to ensure that no one gets left behind , especially during the holiday season .
“ In Queenstown , our office is dedicated to supporting the Happiness House Community Centre , which has been a pillar of the community since 1991 . In Arrowtown , we stand behind Baskets of Blessing , a charitable trust and volunteer organisation that goes above and beyond to assist individuals and families facing unexpected life challenges .
“ What makes this year ' s campaign even more exciting is the addition of our elf on the shelf , Little Ray . We can ' t wait to introduce him to the Queenstown community and have him experience the adventures of a Queenstown local . Christmas is truly the best time of the year in our town , with a bustling atmosphere and an outpouring of happiness . It ' s heartwarming to see our little community come together to support those who are less fortunate .”
