Every teenager has their own style, interests and personality - and Christmas gifts should reflect that.

By donating a $30 TEEN Gift Card to Gateway Family Services' Christmas Appeal, you're giving a vulnerable young person the opportunity to choose a gift that's right for them. Whether it's a new pair of shoes, a favourite clothing brand, books, gaming accessories or something they've been saving for, the choice is theirs.

These cards are handed out to selected families as part of our Christmas Hamper Program.

🎁 You can:
• Donate a $30 TEEN Gift Card to Gateway Family Services
• Or make a financial donation and we'll purchase the cards on your behalf (use reference TEEN Cards)

Donate here to support the campaign: https://www.gatewayfamilyservices.org.au/page/donations

Cards can be dropped off to 70 Old Bathurst Rd Blaxland or posted to PO Box 3051 East Blaxland.

Don't miss the next Blaxland Chamber Networking Dinner on Wednesday 23 September, 5.30pm–9.00pm at Glenbrook Panthers Bowling Club. With businesses facing rising costs and economic uncertainty, our guest speaker Suzanne Walker — Founder of Clear Path Accounting, Business Advisor, Tax Agent, CPA and Millionaire Mindset Coach — will unpack the real-world financial habits that keep businesses strong, confident and in control. Her session, "Financially Unshakeable: What Every Business Owner Should Be Doing Right Now," is a must for any local business owner wanting sharper cashflow, better decision-making and a more resilient bottom line. Plus, it's a fantastic chance to connect with fellow Blaxland business owners over dinner. Tickets are $55 for members and $50 for non-members, dinner included.

Great local business community. If you're a sole trader or small business I encourage you to come along if you haven't been before.

Running a small business can be a lonely job. You're the marketer, the bookkeeper, the boss and the cleaner all before lunch — and when things get tough, it's easy to feel like you're carrying it on your own.

That's exactly why chambers of commerce exist. Being part of Blaxland Chambers means having a network of local business owners who genuinely understand what you're going through — because they're going through it too. People who'll refer you work, share what's working (and what isn't), and back you when times are hard.

If you're a local business and you're not a member yet, we'd love to have you. Send us a message and we'll show you what membership looks like. 🤝

🚨We've become aware of a couple of scam comments appearing on our recent Trivia Night Facebook post from people claiming to have "spare tickets" and asking others to send them a direct message.

Please don't engage with these comments.

⚠️ No Trivia Night tickets have been sold yet, so anyone claiming to have spare tickets is not genuine.

To help keep everyone safe:

✅ Only purchase tickets through our official Gateway Family Services fundraising page.
✅ Be cautious of anyone asking you to pay via private message or bank transfer.
✅ If you spot a suspicious comment, please report it to Facebook and let us know.

We'll continue removing any scam comments as quickly as we can, but unfortunately these fake accounts are becoming increasingly common on Facebook.

Thank you for helping us keep our community safe online, and we look forward to seeing you at Trivia Night! 💜
