The charity is making sure that every child in Leeds gets a present this Christmas MissionChristmas
to donations and volunteers. Unfortunately we’ve hit a bit of a standstill at the moment with gifts, so we’re urging people to do anything they can to help us, whether that’s donating a gift or money online.”
Charlotte Clayton, Mission Christmas co-ordinator, with Hannah Clark, charity fundraiser executive For Pulse1 and Cash For Kid's Mission Christmas appeal The cost-of-living crisis this year has seen many families struggling with rising food and fuel bills and, with many already choosing between heating and eating, buying Christmas presents is financially beyond those worst off. Around 14.5 million people are living in poverty in the UK,. That’s more than one in every five people.
Hannah said Cash For Kids is determined to make sure the thousands of underprivileged children living in Leeds still get a gift to open this year.She added: “They’re going to have a Christmas - and get to experience what it feels like to open a present on Christmas Day. We want to say a big thank you to everyone who is doing as much as they can. Their help means the world to us, now more than ever. Even if it’s just one gift, it makes such a difference.
