2FM and SuperValu are set to team up again with the St Vincent de Paul to help those who need it the most in our community this Christmas. The Toy Appeal has been a great success over the past 4 years. This year they have an even bigger goal and we want to help them to transform Christmas for thousands of families throughout the country.
This year, St Peter’s have decided to get involved. We want to ensure that no auntie or uncle, granny or grandfather struggling financially has to personally suffer to give some simple presents this Christmas.
There are several ways to get involved:
- Buy a virtual gift in our online store and be in with a chance to win RTE TOY SHOW TICKETS
- Buy a voucher in SuperValu to help families with their food costs at Christmas. You can simply buy the voucher at the till and drop it off in the secure box available in each store
- Drop off an unwrapped toy at your local Supervalu store.
- Buy a voucher at Eason or Toymaster.
Or if you’d like to pick a gift yourself, simply drop any new unwrapped toy into your local SuperValu or Superquinn. Collection points will be open from Monday 25th November.
What are we doing in St. Peter’s?
This year, we’re asking you to spend no more than €1 or €2 on simple, cheap toys that are similar to those you’d find in a stocking. We’ll collect them and send them to families in need this Christmas. This small gift from you could really help a family that is struggling financially this Christmas. Gifts can be dropped into the office and all donations of toys or gifts for children that are unopened and still packaged/boxed would be greatly appreciated!
