The Salvation Army Christmas Toy Appeal Milton Keynes
We are pleased to say that our Christmas Toy Appeal is still going ahead despite the struggles of lockdown. We know that this year for many families it will be an even greater struggle and our aim is to ensure every child in Milton Keynes (0years to 16 years has something for Christmas).
Normally we would be asking for donations of new and not gift wrapped toys to be handed in at our building. Due to the lockdown this may be a struggle for people who would normally want to support.
We have set up this page for those of you who would be happy to make a financial contribution to our Christmas present Appeal; with these funds and after lockdown we will be able to purchase the gifts/toys that we still will need to make up the gift parcels.
We receive referrals of families via social services, health visitors, family centres and schools; these services will pick up the parcels from us and distribute to the families that are in need.
This is only possible because of the generosity of the general public and our communities in MK so if you can't get out and buy a toy please consider donating on this page.
Thank you
