How You Can Get Involved:

 

• Purchase a Pre-Packed Shoebox (AED 100)

Visit any Thrift for Good store to buy a pre-packed shoebox filled with meaningful preloved gifts. Each box you purchase will be delivered directly to a child supported by our partner charities.
Can’t make it to the store? Simply click the "Buy Now" button to purchase a shoebox online and make a difference from wherever you are.

 

• Pack Your Own Shoebox

1. Add a personal touch by creating your own shoebox gift! Fill it with:

• School supplies

• Small toys or games

• Personal care products

• Other small, meaningful items

 

2. Wrap the lid and base separately, and label the box with the child’s gender and intended age group (2–4 yrs, 5–9 yrs, 10–14 yrs, or 15–18 yrs).

3. Labels are available for download from our website. Please secure the box with an elastic band (no tape) and drop it off at any Thrift for Good store.

 

Please note: only complete shoeboxes can be accepted in store due to shipping and customs requirements.
