Last day for Shoe Box Appeal
Start: 22nd Nov 2024 12:00am
In the lead up to Christmas this year, we would like to invite families to join us in creating shoebox Christmas presents for children in Eastern Europe.
Like last year, we have chosen to support the work of Teams4U, a small charity based in North Wales who have been working with people across Europe and Africa since 2006. Each year, they run a nationwide shoebox appeal to provide Christmas gifts to vulnerable children and families and we have chosen to support them this year as they will be delivering shoeboxes to children in Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Bosnia and Romania.
If you are interested in donating a filled shoebox, please pick up a leaflet from the school entrance explaining what you need to do. You can also find lots of helpful guidance and information on the Teams4U website: teams4u.com. Once on the website, click on the ‘What we do’ tab and then ‘Shoeboxes: Appeal 2024’.
Alternatively, if you feel that you want to take part but do not have the time to buy and fill a shoebox, you can sponsor a shoebox instead and Teams4U will create a shoebox on your behalf at a cost of £15 from you.
For those who are able to fill a shoebox, please deliver these to school by Friday 22nd November. This then gives us time to deliver the boxes to Teams4U and for them to send them over to Eastern Europe in time for Christmas.
