Sienna Cookson and Paige Millar of Horsham have been selling the treats outside the Millar's family home in Horsham's Wavell Street to raise Christmas cheer and raise funding for the Wimmera Cancer Centre. Paige said the reindeer food was a mixture of cheerios, oats and pearls and advised to people to "sprinkle" the treat in their garden on Christmas Eve.
Sienna said they chose to raise funds for the Wimmera Cancer Centre because her grandmother was diagnosed with cancer last Christmas.
"We just want to do our bit to help others," she said.
Wimmera Cancer Centre manager and cancer nurse practitioner Carmel O'Kane said the centre was grateful for any donations.
"It's so gorgeous to see even the youngest in our community supporting our work," she said. "It doesn't take a lot to make a difference."
