Toy Appeal is our Christmas project that has Amelia’s Elves delivering tailored gifts to the families we support. Back in 2012 our charity visited the hospital to spread some Christmas cheer but this developed to the Elves visiting homes. Just before Christmas 13 teams of Elves travel across Dorset delivering donated presents to children, siblings and parents.
We recognise no two children are the same, also given the range of conditions we support it is important the gifts are appropriate. Thanks to the generous donations from the public, we are able to give families a real treat. We work closely with business partners who are our gift drop offs centres and then we spend the whole of December at Elf HQ with volunteers who help us sort, pick and pack!
We also fundraise for Toy Appeal as we often have to purchase teenage gifts. It’s a real community effort and we are so grateful for the support we receive in running such a huge and popular project.
IT’S NOT CHRISTMAS YET…BUT……we need the following help please:
