Stunning Christmas Gifts on sale that donate directly to The Leprosy Mission...
As Christmas creeps closer and closer, and thoughts turn to that perfect gift for your loved ones, why not shop locally and ‘Show You Care’ by making a donation to The Leprosy Mission Ireland who have opened the doors to their very first Christmas shop in Sandyford.
Located in Suite 14, The Cubes Offices, Beacon South Quarter .The pop up shop will be open from 24th November right up until Christmas selling an array of beautiful gifts and homewares. For each sale made at the Christmas pop up shop (and via the online shop) 100% of the profits will go directly to The Leprosy Mission Ireland, helping those affected by leprosy around the world.
Leprosy is mostly regarded as a “biblical” disease, but it is one of the neglected diseases of today, affecting hundreds of thousands of people across the world. It presents a variety of challenges most especially to those individuals affected by some form of social, economic, physical or psychological aspect of leprosy. The Leprosy Mission Ireland works with the individuals and communities affected by leprosy in Asia and Africa, helping them to live a happy and fulfilled life. Money raised through the sale of gifts at Christmas helps Leprosy Mission Ireland with their challenges across the developing world.
