Appeal for shoe boxes for Christmas
12:23pm Friday 24th October 2008 in
International Aid Trust is a Christian humanitarian agency based at Much Hoole who have transported more than £5million worth of donated aid to various parts of the world.
These people are far worse off than we are or perhaps can imagine.
We would like to thank all our supports, and especially at Harvest time, for all the unsolicited gifts of food, cooking oil, money and other useful commodities that have been donated by schools, churches and individuals to help the needy.
For some recipients this aid will be a matter of life over death and a much welcome relief after much suffering.
As Christmas approaches, too quickly perhaps, people’s thoughts may turn to Christmas shoe boxes. International Aid Trust will deliver any box that readers may wish to contribute and add to the 84,000 boxes we delivered last year.
Thank you yet again.
