Maidstone

This October - December, Maidstone Salvation Army will be running our Christmas Present Appeal for 500 children aged 0-16.

We are fundraising to be able to purchase gift vouchers from The Entertainer toy shop. Please help us reach our target.

The vouchers will be distributed through our local schools to families that would otherwise not be able to afford to purchase gifts for their children this Christmas.

Please donate here: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/thesalvationarmychristmas-2024-476
