It will soon be that time of year when many of us will be popping in out out of every shop on the planet, so if you do find yourself wandering aimlessly around Mercadona, Masymas, Consum or Iceland ( oops sorry Overseas! – I will never get used to that!) there’s a PERFECT opportunity to do an incredibly good deed.
In the words on Niamh on Javea Connect a few days ago….” For a few euros you can contribute to the ANNUAL FOOD DRIVE. Almost 70 destitute, physically disabled, mentally challenged or terminally ill homeless misplaced souls depending on YOUR generosity to get through these winter months. The food items they need for the pantry aren’t expensive. I promise, it’s the staple basics that won’t have a huge impact on your shopping bill. You’ll barely notice! But they certainly will. TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Give Niamh a call (message) to arrange collection of your shopping bag or here’s a list of drop-off points. Kudos to all these businesses who are supporting this cause. It makes it all logistically possible.
