Donegal pupils box it off to help others this Christmas

The pupils of Scoil an Linbh Íosa in Carrigans have been busy over the past few weeks in donating to the HOPE Annual Christmas Shoebox Appeal.

Pupils fill shoeboxes with a range of simple Christmas gifts which are then distributed by truck or shipping container to less fortunate children in hospitals, schools, shelters, churches, orphanages, community centres, mountain villages and family homes in selected countries throughout the world.

The pupils of Scoil an Linbh Íosa donated almost 70 shoeboxes equating to almost one for every pupil in the school.

They are pictured here with their donation just prior to collection by the Team Hope representatives.

Take a bow guys.
