Shoebox appeal

So, what do you plan to get for Christmas? A puppy? A new game? A pet rock called Tim? Well whatever you get I sincerely hope you enjoy it but thats beside the point. Stop for a moment and think for a moment 'Some people aren't as fortunate as me, I wish I could do something about it'. Well you can, what if you could give a child the gift of happiness via a pencil case, a toothbrush, something that they will use everyday and appreciate? You can, you know. JRCS participates in something called the shoebox appeal, we donate old shoeboxes that have been rewrapped and filled with things a child would enjoy, they are then sent of and on Christmas day a child will receive it, and they will be happy.
So when you do wake up on christmas, and open your christmas gift and find a pet rock named Tim and a series of not so useful accessories (including a tutu dress, only available for £50.99 get yours now) and you participated in the shoebox appeal you can think to yourself 'Wow! A child in the world is experiencing the same joy I am experiencing now! Great!'

Stay tuned
