NIA Para 1.38 Contribution made by volunteers Other Achievements and Performance SORP refere￿e CHRISTMAS One of our main appeals is to provide Chrlstmas presents for children living in homeless hostels in London and Essex. 2023's Christmas shoebox appeal was a great success. The local community supported us with donations of goods as well as financial aid. We were pleased to hand out a total of 2700 presents to children in poverty. The children we helped would be without presents if it was not for our appeal. Runnlng thls appeal through our social media platforms benefited not only our cllents but also the local community to remove the tsboo of poverty in the UK. We received a high amount of feedback from the community who y￿re not aware of the plight of poverty in the local area. The children who received the presents were overwhelmed with the generosity.
