Christmas Collections 2024
Christmas is always a special time for us at York Cares, and this year, our Christmas Collection campaign is back and stronger than ever! 11 not-for-profit organisations based in York have shared their wishlists, comprising of essential items, gifts, and treats for those in need.
This year, we're proud to support local charities like Door 84, Kyra, Refugee Action York, SASH, and more. Every donation makes a difference, bringing much needed items, warmth, and community spirit to those in York this festive season.
When asked about the difference that the collections make or Door 84, Heidi Haywood, Executive Manager said:
The Christmas Collections make such a huge difference. It allows some relief in the current pressures and creates a supportive, community feel. The donations go to a range of families and community members who access Door 84. Receiving the support from a trusted place is an extremely important part of the process to help reduce stigma and increase the amount of beneficiaries. We are so grateful to York Cares and the supporters who made this magic happen.”
Thank you for helping make this season brighter for those who need it most!
