Christmas boxes: the easy, easy initiative to give a gift to the most needy in your city

The Christmas boxes to donate to the needy have left Milan, an initiative that has bounced around the web and can be borrowed in other cities.

Grab an old shoe box, fill it up and make someone happy! They started from Milan the Christmas boxes to give to the most needy, an initiative that in just a few days has rebounded on social networks and which can now also be borrowed in other cities. She, Marion Pizzato, actually had a brilliant idea and immediately managed to organize a widespread network. Her goal? To target those who need things. Easier than that?





Not always useful things, but certainly "gestures that warm the heart" and so until 11 December all you need is just a shoe box to fill with some garment, something greedy or a useful product for cosmetics, without forgetting a kind ticket. Then the box is wrapped and sent as a gift to leave under the tree.

"Christmas boxes is a solidarity project to give a little joy to the most needy in this strange and difficult but still Christmas period!", Says Marion on the Facebook page created for the occasion, followed by over 12 thousand people.

Christmas boxes: the easy, easy initiative to give a gift to the most needy in your city

As Marion Pizzato explains:

Take a shoe box and put in it 1 warm thing (gloves, scarf, hat, sweater, blanket, etc.), 1 greedy thing, 1 pastime (book, magazine, sudoku, pencils, etc.), 1 beauty product (cream, bubble bath, perfume, etc.) and 1 kind note ... because words are worth even more than objects. And then he makes some clarifications: For the Man / Woman Box:
  • The Hot Thing and the Pastime: can be "used" but in good condition
  • La Cosa Golosa: Non-perishable and new food
  • The Beauty Product: it must be new
  • The Gentile Ticket: perhaps the thing that will warm the heart of those who open the box the most

Baby Box:

  • The Hot Thing and the Pastime: can be "used" but in good condition - always indicate age and gender on the box
  • The Greedy Thing: candies would be greatly appreciated
  • The Beauty Product: a toothpaste or a toothbrush for children
  • The Gentle Card: a drawing your child makes could be a beautiful thought

Wrap the box, decorate it and write in a corner to whom the gift is intended: woman, man or child (add age range).

Where to deliver it? In the posts on the Facebook page, the list of collection points in Milan and outside Milan is published from time to time and in the events section the collection times at San Siro. All this happens in Milan, but why not "copy" the initiative of the "Christmas Boxes - Milan" and replicate it in your own city? Source: Milan Christmas boxes
