gift-filled shoeboxes send Christmas cheer
Gift-filled shoeboxes are putting a smile on children’s faces this Christmas thanks to an employee collection from Shoreline Housing Partnership.
Throughout August, Shoreline employees collected toys, stationery, toiletries, sweets plus knitted hats and scarves to make up shoeboxes to donate to the Samaritan’s Purse Christmas Appeal.

Nearly fifty boxes were packed and wrapped by the Shoreline Board before being sent on their way by Shoreline chair Karen Rastall.
Karen said: “Our employees have been so generous with their donations. We’re delighted to be able to send so many gifts to children in need which will hopefully help to brighten up their Christmas.”
The Samaritans Purse Operation Christmas Child campaign is an annual shoebox campaign for individuals, schools, churches, workplaces and community groups to send gift-filled shoeboxes to needy children around the world.
