CATHOLIC CHILDREN’S SOCIETY CRIB APPEAL:
Each year the CCS offers practical and emotional support to children and families who are under great personal and financial strain and for whom the overwhelming expectations of Christmas can be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. The society works with families to relieve their stresses and give them hope for the future. They also help the children to enjoy their Christmas by providing parties, toys and clothes. Please help them by supporting the Crib Appeal this year. Thank you.
