🎄❤️ **CHRISTMAS COMPASSION GIVING TREE** ❤️🎄

Are you a local business in the Portadown or Craigavon area? We would love to hear from you!

We are looking for local businesses who would be willing to host a Christmas Compassion Giving Tree on their premises 🎄

Each tag on the tree will represent a child and a little something they would love to receive this Christmas. By hosting a tree, you can help your staff, customers and local community come together to make Christmas extra special for children and families who need a little extra support! ❤️

Imagine the smiles we could create when our community comes together! 🥰🎁

If you would be interested in hosting a giving tree, please get in touch with R8 Compassion Outreach. We would love to chat with you!

Let's work together to give the gift of a smile this Christmas!☺️

What an incredible day!🙌

From hours of setting up, to opening the doors and seeing queues of people waiting outside, to watching the room fill with families from all walks of life...
Today exceeded all of our expectations! 🥰

The response to our school uniform shop has been absolutely amazing, and it was wonderful to see so many people benefiting from the service. Every item given out represents one less worry for a family as they prepare for the new school year🎒🚸

A huge thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, and supported this project. This wouldn't have been possible without your kindness and generosity!❤️

Days like this are a reminder of what can happen when a community comes together to support their town!!🤝
