Story

Christmas has soon come around again. The festive period is fastly approaching, and we are on a mission to buy Christmas presents and festive chocolate to over 1000 children aged 0-18 years old in Grimsby, Cleethorpes, and Immingham, through CARE's annual Toys for Joy event.

Let's make this a reality together.

Christmas is a time filled with wonder and delight, especially for children. Yet, for families grappling with financial hardships, the festive season can be overshadowed by extreme stress and uncertainty. At CARE, we believe that every child deserves the magic of Christmas, regardless of their circumstances. We aim to help as many children as possible, experience the joy of opening a present on Christmas morning. Ensuring that children, who would otherwise go without, get to experience the excitement that Santa has been to visit their house too this year.

No matter how little or big your donation can be, all the pennies and pounds add up and will help us to reach our target of £5000, making a profound difference to vulnerable children and their families throughout our community, this Christmas.

The difference your donation could make...

The impact of our annual Toys for Joy event is best told in the words of the parents who received donations last year...

"Through tough times, these places help those struggling to allow our children to still smile Christmas morning with just that little gift to be able to open still. Keeping us mums smiling." – Mother

"I really do not know how to thank you this year has been the worst, things have been really hard. I was dreading it and this help will really make our Christmas now. A weight has been lifted, it will be a happy time instead of a worrying time." - Mother

"Without you our children would wake up with no gift. You make such a difference and take such pressure off us parents. Thank you." - Father

Your support isn't just a financial contribution; it's a message of hope and care to those who need it most. Together, we can ensure that no child is left without the joy of the season. Together we can make a difference.
