Story
We're raising £3,000 for a community project - to give a child a Christmas.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
We decided, with the support of some great friends, fellow business’s & our local radio station to reinstate the Great Toy Appeal in our area.
So along with our ‘Donate a new toy’ designated drop off points, where individuals or companies can drop off a gift for a child, we are hoping to raise £3,000 to enable us to purchase New toys to reach the 538 children in need - to give a child a Christmas.
All donations received will be used to purchase a New toy for every child whose family are either struggling financially or due to changes in their family circumstances, would not be able to buy their child a toy this year. No child should ever miss the joy of opening a new toy on Christmas day!
Once purchased, these toys will be distributed throughout the Salisbury Pantry & Old Sarum and Longhedge Pantry this Christmas.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, I will withdraw funds directly. It's the most efficient way to donate and saves time and costs.
