    Default ShoeBox Appeal

    For those who don't know, it involves filling a shoebox with gifts/products for disadvantaged children/elderly/families.


    Have you ever done these? I remember doing it in my school a couple of times.
    Would you ever if you haven't?


    http://www.rotaryshoebox.org/ seems like a good site - it's for sending boxes all throughout the year so not just Christmas I'm hoping to do it soon! Anyone wanna join me??

    I do a shoebox every year with my church. We send it off to an orphanage in romania and they usually film them opening. So cute seeing their excitement.

    We lit just sent one off, it's really nice because it's more personal than just giving a fiver to the charity (not that there's any problem with that obv) and you know it's things that they really NEED as well as want
