Basket Brigade time - are YOU ready to STEP UP!!?

Basket Brigade time - are YOU ready to STEP UP!!?

For the last three years, we have fed families at christmas time, focusing on Edinburgh and Glasgow.

It's that time of year again... are YOU ready to STEP UP?

I have just received an offer of £250 (actually it's an active YES-London member and he is moving to Scotland, so he has offered £500 split between London & YES-Scotland).
So already we're on a roll...

Also our biggest single corporate contributor over the last three years has been Scottish Widows, organised by one person; and they have been FILLING boxes of food for us to distribute, at this (often-selfish) time of year when your generosity is VERY MUCH appreciated.

So CAN YOU HELP this year?

a) Financial contributions; you can donate here;







b) Personal & Corporate support (can you organise a collection of food, toys and goodies to be distributed?)

c) You can offer your time to help sort, pack and distribute the parcels (most likely to be Sunday 10th & 17th December)

d) You can help by finding names and addresses of needy families (maybe you have contact with the local Minister, Soup kitchen etc)
