Thank you, as ever, for your support of the Boxes of Hope (Cumbria) Shoebox Campaign.
Your 2021 Shoeboxes have arrived safely in Romania!
Although, due to COVID, our team of volunteers will not be heading to Romania to distribute them this year, our charity partner in Romania, People2People will kindly hand them out for us.
Photos will appear on our Facebook page, so keep an eye out for your box!
A huge thank you to everyone who has supported the 2021 Boxes of Hope, Cumbria shoebox campaign.
We hope you have enjoyed filling your shoebox. Thanks to those who have filled boxes, picked them up from various places, checked them and packed them into the wagon. And everyone else who has contributed in any way.
There are 9,245 boxes on their way to Romania to be given out to those less fortunate.
Thank you so much. See you again next year….!
Your lovingly filled shoeboxes can be dropped off at our drop off points from 1st November.
Please wait until 1st November as our kind hosts are often short of room!
See the list here:
This years’ leaflet can be downloaded here:
Physical copies can be obtained from various shops, schools and other supporters.
We’re delighted to confirm that the 2021 Boxes of Hope Shoebox Campaign will launch soon.
Keep an eye on the website and Facebook page for the new leaflet!
But, in the meantime, start collecting your empty shoeboxes!
We look forward to another successful campaign this year, with hopefully, our volunteers travelling to Romania to hand out the boxes.
The boxes have arrived in Romania ready for our partner charity, People2People, to hand out. Unfortunately, our volunteers aren’t able to go this year, so we are very grateful to Nicu and his team who will hand them out on our behalf.
