Merton Giving Christmas appeal
Merton Giving Christmas appeal
Donate a gift to help spread some Christmas cheer
Building on the heart-warming generosity from the community last year, this festive season Merton Giving is partnering with Centre Court Shopping Centre to encourage local people and local businesses to donate a Christmas Gift.
The Gift For All Christmas Appeal will support local residents who might otherwise not receive a Christmas present, with local charities helping to distribute the donations.
Diana Sterck, chair of Merton Giving said: “We were incredibly moved and thankful for the generosity of our local community last year which enabled us to provide over 400 gifts to vulnerable residents. 2021 has continued to be another challenging year for so many and we’d like to continue to support residents who might not otherwise receive a gift to help make a positive difference.”
Lynsey Coleman, Senior Marketing Manager at Centre Court Shopping Centre added: “Centre Court are very proud to be partnering with Merton Giving this year to continue their Christmas Gift Appeal. If the last two years have taught us anything, it’s the value of coming together to benefit the community including those who may not have the same Christmas experience that we all cherish. We encourage anyone who is able to donate a gift this festive season to someone that won’t otherwise receive one.”
