Kiwanis Club of Croydon Annual Shoebox Appeal
Kiwanis UK is again happy to support the Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child.
Samaritan’s Purse is running its popular Operation Christmas Child again. This is a Christian charity with a strong message of faith, and boxes go to more than 150 countries for impoverished children. You need to be quick with this one, as boxes need to be dropped off by November 18.
Contact Kiwanis Club of Croydon directly via email: enquiries@kcoc.co.uk or leave a message on the contact page if you are interested in helping out with A DONATION.
You can choose to buy for a girl or a boy, and also choose between age ranges (2-4, 5-9, 10-14). Top up with toys, hygiene items, and school supplies, and pay a suggested donation of £5 to cover shipping and other costs.
