Last year, we have raised over £12,000 for families in need – over 1200 people received Christmas food parcels due to your generous donations. Can you help those in need this year and boost our efforts again?
Great Perthshire are supporting Giraffe this Christmas
Giraffe is aiming to make this Christmas less stressful and more magical
Since April 2020, Giraffe has provided more than 55,000 free meals to people in need in Perth, including 1200 Christmas meal parcels last year for families in need. This year raised even more challenges than the last and we want to ensure that, again, no one has to spend Christmas without a good meal. So we have teamed up with a simple aim – to give over 1 200 people in need a magical Christmas – a compassionate Christmas.
Like last year, this simple aim comes with a simple target – we plan to raise £20,000 to make this happen!
By donating just £20 (we know that this year has been tough) you will be ensuring someone of a special 3 course meal that is prepared, packed and distributed with care and attention by the whole team at our lovely charity.
We’re going to work with other local charities such as Letham4All, Perth Foodbank, TullochNet and Caledonia Housing to distribute these parcels to people in need.
Donate now
You can donate to Giraffe directly by visiting their Now Donate Checkin Works website, where every penny donated will go directly to ensuring people with learning disabilities, autism and mental ill health get work and life experiences that will help them lead productive independent lives.
Contribute to the parcels
The team at Giraffe will be arranging for a delicious, wholesome three course meal to be included in the Christmas parcel, however, if you or your business are in a position to make these parcels even more special, we want to hear from you. We’d like to hear from anyone who can add that metaphorical cherry on top.
Become a fundraiser superstar
We are looking to meet as many people as we can who can set our ambitious target for the Christmas campaign between now and Christmas. For example, if we can find 20 superstars who can raise £500 each, we will reach our target of £10,000. Fundraising is difficult in this environment, but we will support you with ideas, social media support and whatever socially distanced cheerleading we can muster.
