‘All Wrapped Up for Christmas’ - Get involved in our new appeal for Syrian refugee children. 

30/10/2015

More than four million Syrians have now fled war and persecution and become refugees in neighbouring countries, making the Syrian conflict the worst crisis for almost a quarter of a century. 

Children on the Edge have been supporting work with Syrian refugee children in Lebanon for over a year now. The work here provides these children with an education within the refugee camps, medical support and much needed winter clothing and fuel for heating. As Christmas approaches we are launching an urgent appeal for the project called ‘All Wrapped Up’. 

Skilfully designed by local illustrator Hannah George, we have some beautiful Christmas wrapping paper and matching tags for sale, with all profits going to the project. In this way, the paper has your gifts wrapped up for Christmas and is enabling a refugee child to be warm and ‘wrapped up’ this winter.

This is an excellent resource to fundraise in the run up to Christmas. Naturally we’d like to sell as much as possible and we need your help!

BUY IT

This beautiful paper is selling for £4 for a gift set (6 sheets made up of 2 designs and 8 high quality matching tags).

This is enough money to heat a refugee camp classroom for a week. You could also buy 3 for £10 which is enough to buy a warm coat for a refugee child.  

You can stock up now by buying it on our website, popping into our office (just call ahead to arrange a suitable time on 01243 538 530), or you can visit one of the following shops from Monday 2nd and buy it while doing your Christmas shopping!

In Chichester:
​
The Bazaar - East Street
Tinks Pretty Things - North Street
Ricara - South Street
Regis Hair Salon - Crane Street
Clothkits - The Hornet

Also available at Mia Bella Casa in Rustington and The Cotton Wool Store in Petworth.

SELL IT

We are looking for entrepreneurs to sell this paper to raise money for our work. We’re asking you to sell 25 of our gift packs, which will raise up to £100 for the project, enough to wrap up 10 refugee children warm for the winter. 

Individuals can sell them to friends, work colleagues, or at school fetes or craft fairs. Whatever suits.

Any high street establishment can sell the paper as part of their stock, or on the counter as a talking point and Christmas fundraiser.

Unfortunately because of high postage costs, sellers need to be fairly local to pick up paper, or have our staff deliver it. 

We’ll provide you with all the resources you might need to sell it and information about where the money goes. Just call the office on 01243 538 530 or e-mail Serena
​and we’ll work out what’s best for you. 
​

We’re excited about the difference we can make through this appeal, and hope you will join us!
