Emmaus Shoe Box Appeal 2021

Emmaus Hull & East Riding are asking for donations for this year’s shoe box appeal.

Emmaus have been lucky enough to have come by a supply of some small rucksacks so it does not have to be a shoebox. if you wish to donate some items the magic little elves at Emmaus will pack them nicely into the bags provided.

Please remember that there are many more women living on the streets than you may realise so bear this in mind when when you are purchasing your items.

The items do not need pre-wrapping; this is a job for the sorting elves at Emmaus. Emmaus are also happy to collect locally.

An ideal shoebox would include items such as:
Underpants/knickers, Socks, Baby wipes, Deodorant, Soap, Toothbrush & Toothpaste, Chocolate (long sell by date), Hand warmer, Sanitary Towels (if ladies), Seasonal Card, note or even a short letter. Colouring book, puzzle book and pens, wind up radio or torch.

Other items: Treats, Snacks, Sweets, Sleeping Bag, Gloves, Hat, Novel, Rain Poncho.

For collections call 01482 223722 or drop donations off at one of their shops
