It’s Christmastime, and as usual FCS is bringing Christmas cheer to the area! Find out what we’re doing below, and how to take part.
Santa Sacks
What better way to spread the joy of the season than making sure no young person in our area goes without this Christmas.
Each year since FCS began, we have delivered over 90 Santa Sacks to young people in the local area who are struggling. And this year is no different, well actually it is, we need 114 this year 😦
With your help, and working with the local schools and services, we distribute a sack of wrapped gifts for them to enjoy at Christmas. Santa Sacks have previously contained books, stationary, a board game, toys, toiletries, jewelry, hat and scarf, hot chocolate, and sweets. All organised and wrapped by volunteers, it’s no mean feat! We love doing it, it is much needed, and your support will help us deliver again this year.
We cater for ages 3 – 17, with age appropriate gifts. The money we have received in the past has meant that we can buy in bulk and achieve significant discounts which means the children and teenagers have more to open. We are opening this up this year to allow people to buy a small gift if they feel uncomfortable about donating money, or wish to donate money to fund a Santa Sack as well as a gift, such as a selection box, toiletries, or stationary. Please donate what you can here:
