Toys for Joy this Christmas holiday season

‘Toys for Joy’ is the inaugural project of the newly launched Stef & Philips Foundation, aiming to gift toys to over 400 families in temporary and emergency accommodation this Christmas-time.

We spoke to Trustee Chair Amani Sakeria who commented: “We recognise the hardship that families in temporary and emergency accommodation have to cope with at any time of year, but for many, Christmas-time is especially hard. Which is why Stef & Philips collectively decided that a toy appeal, with an aim of brightening the lives of children living in our temporary and emergency accommodation this holiday season would be the right start for the Stef & Philips Foundation.”

The appeal will be gifting NEW toys to boys and girls of all ages, and thanks to the generosity of donors, suppliers and partners we are on target to meet our aim of a providing a toy to all children in Stef & Philips temporary and emergency accommodation!

Presents will be handed out at special events at our sites from 20th to 22nd December where we will also be serving mince pies, chocolates and treats! We hope to share photos and updates with you shortly
