How you can donate to the P&J’s Christmas Appeal

Post Thumbnail

We have teamed up with two of the best-known operators in the P&J area to stop people going hungry this Christmas.

Festive parcels for hard-pressed households in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray are prepared and distributed by CFINE (Community Foods Initiatives North East).

The registered charity operates a food bank from its Granite City headquarters in Poynernook Road.

It also, as the local part of the FareShare network, distributes perfectly good “waste” food from supermarkets and producers via a network of 170 north-east charities and community groups.

Across the Highlands, Blythswood Care distributes emergency provisions to thousands of families and individuals in need.

Both of the highly-respected outfits rely on the financial generosity of the public to keep the huge logistical task running.

This is how you can help – please mention the campaign where possible when you are making a donation by whatever method.

Highlands:

Call 01349 830777 to give to the trust’s Highland Food bank by credit card, or visit www.blythswood.org/donate where PayPal can be used too.

Cheques, made out to Blythswood Care, with a letter mentioning the appeal can be sent to: Blythswood Care, Highland Deephaven, Evanton IV16 9XJ.
