Every year, thousands of shoeboxes are packed with love. But rising transport costs mean we can’t send as many as we’d like. We’ve found a simple solution.

By creating slightly smaller, purpose-built shoeboxes, we can fit more into every carton — reducing costs and helping us deliver more boxes to families and the elderly who need them. Even better, we believe many supporters will fill two instead of one — meaning more people reached, and more support for our projects.

To make this happen, we need to fund the first production run.

Any donation small or large towards the total would be appreciated

It’s the upfront costs that make projects like this difficult to start, so your donation is genuinely helping us get this off the ground. We’re really hopeful it will make a lasting difference in how many people we can reach.  This will purchase the tooling cost and produce the first 5,000 shoeboxes.  Supporters can then buy them and no charity resources will then be used in trialling this project which is whats most important.

If you’d like to be part of that, we’d love your help. PS. If by some miracle we get more than this, any extra funds will go straight into the Shoebox Appeal.
