Shoebox Appeal
As a church we had been involved with the filling of shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child for 18 years.
In 2020 the decision was made to continue to serve under-privileged children in Eastern Europe, but instead through the Rotary Shoebox Scheme. It's simple, a box can be bought for £3.00 and then filled in time for the November Family Service. The box categories are slightly different and now include household and baby boxes. The boxes are smallish, so care need to be taken with size of items bought, so that a good variety of items can go into each box.
