Present Perfect

Donate a Gift to Kids Company

Happy Christmas.

For some, it’s not.

Tomorrow, Kids Company will provide lunch and presents to some 800 underprivileged children. The charity is asking — if not begging — for gift donations to ensure that these kids have something to unwrap on Christmas Day.

Send your gift (a toy, clothing, sweets, a bottle of bubble bath or supermarket/music voucher, all for ages 0 to 18) to the address below by 9 p.m. tonight. It doesn’t matter how you get it there: drop it off in your lunch hour, ask your boss to fund a collective courier, pay a cab driver to deliver it for you.

Just make it happen.

Because everyone deserves a happy Christmas.

All deliveries for Kids Company will be accepted from 10 a.m.-9 p.m., 24 December, at Calthorpe House, 15-20 Phoenix Place, WC1X 0DH (020 7940 0131 or kidsco.org.uk).
