Christmas Jammie Appeal 2024

Description

A charity in the North West of Edinburgh is seeking donations towards their "Jammie Packs" as part of a Christmas 2024 appeal to ensure that children in an area of deprivation receive gifts. 

We offer a "Whole Family Approach" support service under one roof. LIFT (Low Income Families Together) is a community led support and advocacy service, offering a key working, family focused support service model. LIFT is committed to working in a holistic way with individuals, families, and the community. We use a whole family approach using the Key working model. LIFT’S aims & objectives are to assist families to learn new skills to improve their lives and encourage their children to grow up feeling loved, safe, and respected so that they can realise their full potential. 

Through support and advocacy LIFT aims to tackle child poverty, increase wellbeing for individuals and families, to allow them to move forward from poverty and crises. This will be done in a variation of one-to-one support and group work sessions. 

We want to make sure every child goes to bed Christmas Eve with new jammies and a Christmas Eve box. We want to provide our families with an essentials shopping voucher, jammies for the kids, some Christmas Eve fun and a present from Santa. 


We would appreciate any cash donations and jammie donations are in by early December so we can get everything organised and delivered out to our families.
