Runnymede United Outreach - Christmas Shoeboxes

Date for Bringing to the Church – November 26, 2023

Runnymede is supporting Unison Health and Community Services, located at Rogers Road and Keele Street just north of our church again this year. This agency supports moms, babies, families, adults and seniors with many programs including pre– and post natal classes, employment counselling and settlement advice. They are very happy to continue our connection through our shoebox donations. Boxes can be filled for moms, babies (try to be generic), and children ages 1-12.

It is time to begin to prepare your boxes! Please bring the wrapped filled boxes (lids wrapped separate from the bottoms) to the church for White Gift Sunday on November 26th at 10:30 a.m. or leave in the church office during the week of November 26, 2023

Choose to fill a Christmas box for one (or more) of the following: ·

• Baby Girl or Baby Boy

• Girl 1-3 years, 4-8 years, 9-12 years

• Boy 1-3 years, 4-8 years, 9-12 years

• Mother/Woman

You may also make donations toward gift cards for families by sending money via Interac e-transfer to treasurer@runnymedeunited.org and marked "Shoebox Donations". All donations should be received prior to Sunday November 27 2022.
