Weʼve raised £60 to pay for toys and essentials for children this christmas (Operation Christmas Child). I aim to do at least 6 boxes for children to enjoy :)

Story
Children all over the world will wake up this Christmas with nothing. Some are living in war zones, others just in severe poverty.
Whatever the circumstances of these children, I would love to be able to send a box of toys and essentials for them to open this Christmas, to bring a bit of joy to their lives.
We all take for granted the things that we have access to on a daily basis, and as I keep saying, these poor children have nothing.
I would ideally at least like to be able to do 1 box for each gender, in each age group, so that is 6 boxes. If funds allow it, it would be amazing to be able to do more than this.
Each box requires £3 postage, plus I need to buy all the items to put in the boxes.
Dig deep everyone, and know that the money donated will be going to an amazing cause, to brighten these little children's Christmas's!
Thank you so much!

8 years agoWell I am 25% of the way to the £200 target! Thank you so much to those that have donated! I have been busy trying to find the items at a good enough price to be able to do 6 boxes, but I must admit, it is more of a challenge than I expected! I will do it, and it will be thanks to the kind donations I am receiving for these children! Once I have the boxes done, I will post photos for you all to see what your money went on! Again, thank you very much.
