Special Presentation

December 11, 2017

Perth Wildcats Captain and WA Charity Direct ambassador Damian Martin recently visited St Stephen’s for a special presentation. WA Charity direct donated $25,000 worth of donations to local charities in need as part of a pilot program with St Stephen’s. This gave a group of Carramar and Duncraig students the opportunity to research and develop their philanthropic skills while choosing which charities to donate to.

“For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in.” – Matthew 25:35

Get Active, Get Involved

October 20, 2017

Over the second half of last term, a small group of students from Duncraig and Carramar  have been participating in a pilot program from Western Australian Charity Direct, led by Perth Wildcats captain, Damian Martin.

WA Charity Direct is a unique charitable organisation that focuses solely on assisting the people of Western Australia.  WA Charity Direct was established in 2004 and in that time has made a significant difference to the lives of many within the community.

The following Duncraig students will be distributing an amazing $25 000 to needy individuals and a start-up charity. Please take the time to ask them about their process and involvement.
