Our aim is to support organisations such as social services, special needs schools and schools within deprived areas, hospitals, hospices, domestic violence safe houses that house children and families. We help and support children to have essentials to be able to put a smile on their faces, support their learning and development with essential items that many of us take for granted Our Christmas appeal saw over 11,272 toys and gifts delivered and distributed across the West Midlands to families who were in need and whose children were going to go without a Christmas present. Throughout 2019 we've run projects to benefit children and families across Wolverhampton by working with a lot of the organisations we supported over Christmas, with different projects on a weekly basis. So far since January 2019 we have delivered toys, toiletries, books, colouring books, craft items, Easter eggs etc to over 60 different organisations, schools, churches, domestic violence safe house & hospitals.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
Last Christmas we saw over 11,272 individuals benefit, putting smiles on faces over the festive season, feel good factor for the parents that are unable to buy their children presents, due to financial restraints. We also supported a number of schools, social services teams who are working with such family cases and children who are spending Christmas in hospital or hospices receiving gifts was a real boost to their morale.
Steps to get it done:
We're hoping that with this crowdfunding project we can double what we managed to achieve last Christmas as the need is much greater this year than ever before.

We help and support with essential toys, gifts and educational items to put a smile on their faces, support their learning and development with items that many of us just take for granted,
Our Christmas appeal 2018 saw over 11,272 toys and gifts delivred and distributed across the West Midlands to families who were in need and whose children were going to go without a chritmas present. We have wprled through different commmunities across Wolverhampton, celebrating key faith occasions. Such as; Easter, Vaisakhi, Eid, DIwali etc. We have worked alongside local buisnesses, Councillors and MPs to promote our appeals and target as many under priveladged communities as possible.
Throughout this year 2019, we have delivered projects to benefit children, families by working in collabration with organisations we had supported over christmas, on a weekly basis we have delivered toys, toilettries, books, colour therapy books, craft items, easter eggs, school back packs, water bottles and new baby items to maternity hospitals, as well as a pamper day and mothers day gifts specially organised for domestic violence victims and ladies spending mothers day in hospital, throughout summer we supported summer clubs with out door toys, games and educational items.
We have seen 1,000's of children/teenagers, hospice patients, the elderly and ladies benefit from our projects within over 60 different places during this year so far.
We want to make Christmas 2019 the biggest yet! Aiming to double what we delivered in 2018, in order for us to do this, we will require support from even more donators coming forward with toys and gifts from now until christmas, on our facebook page is a list of what items people can donate to us.. as well as the donations we require funding support to be able to deliver to 1000's of children and familes, as a board we decided to seek help as last years numbers were achieved by just one business supporting the entire set up and operational costs.
This is the reason we have started this crowd funding page.
