Christmas Present collection for local needy children

Following the huge success of last year’s collection, the Duquesa Charitable Society of St. George is once again,  launching its  Children’s Gift Appeal. The aim of the appeal is to provide Christmas gifts for local underprivileged children.

The charity is asking for donations of cash, small gifts (preferably new) or sweets (not chocolate). These will them be put together to make up presents  for underprivileged children in Manilva aged from 3 years to 16 years of age.

Gifts can be dropped off at Fathoms Bar, The St George Charity Shop, and The Bookshop all of which are in Sabinillas.

If you prefer, you can donate 10€ for an individual ‘gift bag’ which will be presented to an underprivileged child on 6th January – Spanish 3 kings day.

Cash donations can be paid directly into the charity’s bank account in La Caixa Bank – see details below:-
