Story

Every year we work with Social Services and other Child Agencies in East Glasgow to ensure every local child trapped in poverty receives Brand New Christmas Presents to open on Christmas Day.

In just two years we have seen the number of official requests double and with the impact of Covid-19 in East Glasgow we expect that number to increase again.

Christmas Day should be a day of Joy for every child, not a day that reminds you of the poverty you have no control over.
