🎄 S E L E C T I O N • B O X • A P P E A L 🎄
It’s hard to believe, but this is our 9th year running the Selection Box Appeal — and thanks to everyone’s incredible generosity, last year we distributed 5,073 boxes to children and families across our community.
Already, food banks and charities have reached out, asking if we’ll be able to support them again this Christmas. And we want to say: "yes, we will try."
We believe every child deserves a sweet treat on Christmas Day — a moment of joy, a little sparkle, a reminder that they’re thought of and cared for. But for many families, that simple joy is out of reach. We’ve met service users who’ve had to choose between heating or eating, and it’s happening right on our doorstep.
We know times are tough. Prices have risen across the board, and many of us are feeling the pinch. But if you’re able to donate even just one selection box, it truly makes a difference. That one box could be the reason a child smiles on Christmas morning.
❤️ To everyone who has donated in the past — thank you. You’ve helped us bring comfort, sweetness, and hope to thousands. We appreciate every single one of you. Without you, this wouldn’t be possible.
Let’s do it again. Let’s show what community means. Let’s make sure no child goes without a sweetie this Christmas.
How to donate: You can hand any donations to my home address 12 Kirkconnel Avenue Blackwood or to Debbie 10 Abbotsford Place Greenfaulds. Alternatively you can donate by PayPal or bank transfer and we will buy the selection boxes on your behalf. Please get in touch for details 🎅♥️🎅
Please share, donate, and help us spread the word.
Thank you
