Samaritan’s Purse is an international relief and development organisation that works through local churches to proclaim and demonstrate the love of God amongst communities in Africa, Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Every Christmas, they collect shoeboxes around the globe packed with toys, school suppliers or hygiene products. They get distributed to children in need.
Whatley Manor team collected items and prepared five shoeboxes. Our local florist was organising the collection and was able to collect more than 50 boxes locally.
