In 2023 we sent a huge 295 shoeboxes to Ukraine, eclipsed by an amazing 432 shoeboxes sent to Cambodia in 2024. We thought it could not get any better… how wrong we were! 4⃣7⃣1⃣ shoeboxes are currently on route to Moldova - where they will be given to children displaced from Ukraine in tented refugee camps. 🎁 A message from Mrs Barnsley, “𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘬 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘰 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘮𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦, 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘰𝘹𝘦𝘴.
