Gift Box Appeal needs your support this year more than ever

Published: 19 October 2020

One more box = one more happy child

The Gift Box Project needs your help more than ever before; with the situation in the countries we help the boxes are more Humanitarian Aid than just a Gift Box. In 2019, 3,051 boxes were collected and donated to needy children.

The children receiving Gift Boxes are suffering in some of the worse conditions ever, not helped by the Coronavirus, making it particularly difficult for everyone. Their parents are unable to do very much as many have lost their jobs and others suffering from the virus or quarantine, lack of help and medical attention, no money and short of food, no schooling and no computers for online teaching, to name just a few of their problems. Life is difficult for them no matter how hard they try or how caring they are. 

Thank goodness the trucks are still able to transport the gift boxes and the mission's local staff are still willing to take the risk in distributing the boxes to those in need in each country. Please help and try to bring a little happiness and joy to the children who are suffering so much.

The website has been updated since last year; there are helpful videos and more useful information. The many different ways you can donate to the Gift Box Project if you are unable to make a box has been added.

Boxes accepted from 29 October until 16 November (last day); the truck will be collecting on 17 November. The drop off points will be on the website soon.

We very much hope you will all be taking part in the collection as your boxes are so needed, it is very important we try to help these children with a Gift Box of hope and love.
