Every year Samaritans spend the run up to Christmas gathering and packing up the generous donations sent in by you. These donations get sent all over the globe to thousands of well deserving children that will likely go without receiving any gifts this Christmas.
These shoeboxes will be filled with items that get sent to children who have been affected by war, poverty, famine, natural disasters, and disease.
What can I include in my shoebox?
Don’t worry, you can find a whole list of suggestions online, including:
- Small toys
- Hygiene items
- School supplies
How do I make my donation?
Drop off any shoebox donations to the team at Sapphire during the Collection Week, which is 11th – 17th November 2024. Or, if you find yourself running out of time trying to juggle too many things at once in the run up to Christmas, you can instead, make a donation via the here and the team at Sapphire will take care of the rest for you.
If you’d like to get involved and make a child’s Christmas this year, visit our Operation Christmas Child Mission page today or contact us here and help us reach our goal of 100 shoeboxes.
Deadline is 22nd November so don’t forget to get your donations in before then!
