Every quarter, Asha Celeste Cato and Keir Angus MacDonald from Angus & Celeste donate $1.00 for every on-line purchase made from their beautiful ceramic and porcelain store. This means that every season, Fifteen Trees can plant out 75 trees on their behalf.
St Luke’s Primary School were the recipients of 30 of their trees.
Olivia Hill (Grade 5) writes … On Friday the 26th of July, the Year 5 students from St Luke’s Catholic Primary School planted their trees for National Tree Day. We are planting native trees for National Tree Day to show that we are Australian. We are also planting native trees to attract native birds, insects and animals. A group of people called Fifteen Trees bought the trees for us from a nursery called Billabong Nursery Complex. We chose Billabong because it supports people with a disability. Just like the motto for National Tree Day this year, we got outside and grew!By Olivia Hill (Year 5)

That’s a long history of giving from these remarkable women, and we are not only benefactors of this kindness, as their other philanthropy does ripple out to myriad of other organisations as well.
