The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileIn December, Uthink PDP launched our 2020 Christmas drive in Edinburgh.
With the unprecedented times we were living through during the covid lockdowns, we wished to make Christmas as special as possible for the most marginalised and vulnerable families and individuals in our communities.
Throughout December, we worked in partnership with local schools, community centres, refugee groups and homeless organisations.
This allowed us to identify individuals most in need of our support. And providing us with an breakdown of specific items and presents which were age appropriate and beneficial to the children. From sports equipment, art and crafts, dolls, and imaginary play.
This allowed us to provide:
1625 Christmas presents for children.
1700 children's clothes, jackets and shoes.
85 large Christmas hampers for families.
300 Christmas hampers for the homeless.
300 boxes of chocolates.
And 4,300 essential food items for family meals and batch cooking.
It was a humbling project for us to be a part of. Especially at the end of such a challenging year emotionally, financially and socially.
