Team Hope’s Christmas Shoebox Appeal is an annual campaign that delivers gifts straight into the hands of children affected by poverty
Often these shoebox gifts are the only gift that a child will receive at Christmas and the joy that they bring is incredible. Since 2010, with your help, we have delivered over 2.5 million Shoebox gifts to Vulnerable Children across the world.
You can make a child’s Christmas in less well-off countries by filling a shoe box with practical items i.e. something to WRITE with (pen, copybook, markers, crayons etc.), something to WASH with (toothbrush, toothpaste, facecloth, soap), something to WEAR (hat, scarf, gloves, socks) and WOW a treat or a toy (sunglasses, skipping rope, small doll or cuddly toy, a toy car).
Team Hope Christmas Shoebox AppealWhen closing the box; please include €5 in your leaflet envelope either on top of the gifts or taped to the inside of the lid. Please secure the box with elastic band - please don't seal with tape as we need to check contents to comply with regulations.
The Drop-off Point is; Farrells Supervalu Mitchelstown Location
