Calling all elves for Santa Shoebox project
Make this festive season one to remember with the Santa Shoebox Project.
WITH the Santa Shoebox Project on the go, the St Catherine’s ‘elves’ have been hard at work.
A heartwarming initiative to give back to underprivileged communities, shoeboxes filled with toys, clothes, books and more have been streaming in by the dozen at the local drop-off zones in both Empangeni and Richards Bay.
The purpose of the annual project is to provide top quality gift boxes to deserving children, some who have never received a Christmas before.
There are specific items required for each box, including toothpaste, a tooth brush, a bar of soap, wash cloth, an outfit of clothing (specific to the child’s age), educational supplies, sweets and a toy.
If anybody would like to pledge a box, they can visit the website www.santashoebox.org, or they can contact Mrs Bevan at St Catherine’s on 035 7723041.
