The Catholic Chaplaincy, together with the Order of Malta at Queen’s, is supporting this year’s Christmas Homeless Shoebox Appeal. Every year, individuals and families experiencing homelessness face the festive season alone. QUB students want to reach out and offer concrete supports. We appeal to you to give a small gift and some hope to a homeless person (or someone struggling and at risk of becoming homeless).
We ask that you decorate a shoebox or gift bag for either a male or female (adult) and include items such as:
- Gloves
- Socks
- Toothpaste/brush
- Sanitary items
- Shower Gel
- Shampoo
- Sweets
- Tinned food
- Christmas card
and anything else you can think of that might be helpful.
Boxes can be left securely at the Catholic Chaplaincy QUB, 28 Elmwood Avenue, Belfast during opening hours before 5 December in time for distribution before Christmas. We thank you for your support of this worthwhile initiative.
*(Remember to wrap the box and lid separately so we can add extra items to boxes)*
