Christmas Appeal from Stripey Stork
Santa Stork provides gifts for those who really need a helping hand at this difficult time of year. Unlike their (Stripey Stork) regular donations, these gifts are new and in some cases will be the main or only present they’ll receive this Christmas. Santa Stork’s aim is to ensure they have enough funds to buy presents for every child and parent referred to them this Christmas. This year they have a real challenge. In a recent survey sent to referral partners, 50% expect to be making requests for more families as a direct result of the pandemic. With this in mind, they are scaling-up to respond to 2,500 children and 1,250 parents/carers gift requests this year. In order to work as efficiently as possible and within a safe environment, they are pleased to announce the opening of their virtual Santa Shop - the new way to pledge money to buy a Santa Stork gift. Working in partnership with local toy supplier Toy Barnhaus, they are asking their supporters to choose a present from the options available in their virtual shop. The money donated from the cost of the item will then be used to buy a gift and give these families the Christmas they deserve!
