It was a beautiful end to 2024 with our Boxing Day charity lunch, where we had about 200 people come through.
Thank you to Father Nicholas for allowing us to hold the lunch in your hall at Saints Constantine and Helen Church again this year. Big cheers to our supporters and donors for your generosity towards a good cause.
I would like to acknowledge the 40 or so sensational volunteers, youngest were 7 and 9 years old, who gave up their valuable time preparing for the day, working so selflessly on the day, and always with a warm smile and willing attitude. Everyone's terrific teamwork made the day run so smoothly and positively, and it could not happen without the wonderful volunteers.
Everyone was also very touched with over 300 hampers donated by 3 different parishes around Sydney. Thank you to over 100 volunteers who have put these hampers together.
Donors:
Woolworths Marrickville Metro, Woolworths Rockdale Plaza, Aldi Marrickville Metro, IGA Newtown, Coles Marrickville Metro, Officeworks Glebe, Officeworks Lewisham, Huy Pham, Thu Pham

I would like to sincerely thank our patients and the community for trusting Owl Optometrist as your optometrist in 2024. Your support supports our families, and we will not be here without you. We hope to be better and better at what we do every year and be your go-to optometrist for many decades to come.
Last but not least, I would like to acknowledge the Owl team for all their hard work throughout the year and in preparation for the Boxing Day lunch. They are beautiful souls, inside and out, so eager, diligent, hard-working, and caring towards our patients. There is a lot of work behind the scenes in running a practice that the public does not see, and the Owl team is always there to support each other.
The Owl team and I would like to wish everyone a peaceful 2025 that is filled with love, health, and happiness. We hope you will succeed in all your endeavours and come out on top with any challenges that may come your way. Here's to an amazing year ahead!!! 🍾🥂🥳🎆
