Student Action Manchester Christmas Shoebox Appeal

06 Dec 2010

Help to fill shoeboxes with gifts for the homeless before 13 December

During December, Student Action will be distributing special Christmas gift boxes to the homeless in Manchester city centre. We are asking students and staff members to donate items that could fit in a shoebox!

For the gifts in the shoebox, we are asking staff to donate:

underwear
socks
toothbrushes/toothpaste
gloves, hat and scarves
deodorant
shower gel
soap
flannels
hair-brush
aftershave/perfume
playing cards
or any other items that would fit inside a shoebox!

In these freezing temperatures, we are also desperate for donations for jumpers, coats, blankets, sleeping bags, warm clothes, etc.

Everything we receive will be much appreciated and will go directly to the people who are in desperate need!

Please bring any donations before Monday 13 December to:

Student Action Office
2nd Floor
University of Manchester Students' Union

Many thanks
