This Christmas, we’re teaming up with Bristol Central Church and Neighbourly for the 2024 Shoebox Appeal, part of Samaritan’s Purse – Operation Christmas Child (OCC).
This global initiative delivers joy and hope to children around the world by sending shoeboxes filled with essential items, toys, and gifts. For workplaces, this is a fantastic team-building opportunity—gather your colleagues to pack shoeboxes together and make a meaningful impact.
Here’s how it works: choose a shoebox (we can provide one if needed), decide whether to pack for a boy or girl, and select an age range. Fill the box with a variety of new items such as school supplies, hygiene products, toys, and small gifts. Then, drop it off at Central Church during National Collection Week, from 11-18 November 2024.
You can find out more and collect a shoebox from Bristol Central Church’s stall at Temple Quay Market on Tuesday 5 November.
