Miss Polonia and “Snowflake” at the APCS Christmas Party

Dominika Lipinska and President Lynette Pater represented the Office of Miss Polonia Australia at the Annual Christmas party for our preferred charity, the Australian Polish Community Services (APCS) on the 8th December 2009.  

APCS is a  non-for-profit and charitable organisation established over 25 years ago to meet the specific needs of an ageing population of Australians with Polish ancestry. APCS has since expanded into other communities reflecting the unique assimilation of multi-cultural Australia. 

In particular APCS specialises in home based Aged Care services but also a provides a diverse range of community based programs such Emergency Relief Assistance, English language and Computer classes to over 500 clients.

APCS is generally considered to be the “jewel in the crown” of Australian organisations which originally emanated from the Polish community and currently employs over 60 payroll staff and 100 volunteers.

 

“Snowflake”…with the young at heart!

Both Dominika and Santa’s helper “Snowflake” (Lynette Pater) were popular attractions as they sprinkled some good cheer amongst the young and young at heart.
