We would like to thank you all for your amazing support of the 2FM St.Vincent De Paul Toy Appeal 2011.

Last week we delivered 172 toys to the distribution depot on Mountjoy Square where the toys will sorted into age ranges and then matched with wish lists received from children and families across the country.

Please take the opportunity to watch a short video here, to flick through the goldenpages.ie Toy Appeal facebook album here and to thank anyone who you know who made a donation

We were delighted to take part in this campaign. Thank you all again for supporting this great cause and for your overwhelming generosity – please feel free to tweet or share the video/ Facebook Album with friends and family – #positiveireland

Best wishes for the festive season and 2012,
The goldenpages.ie team

We are delighted to announce that goldenpages.ie is an official Drop off Point for the RTE 2fm/SuperValue Toy Appeal for St. Vincent De Paul this Christmas 2011.

All toys donated will be given to children who may not otherwise receive one this Christmas so it’s a fantastic appeal to get behind and support and we are so excited to do so that we have decorated early and have our very own Toy Room which we hope you will help us fill up with TOYS in time for Christmas!

Nobody leaves goldenpages.ie empty handed either – for every toy donated we will be giving a lolly out in return so come, give and receive here at goldenpages.ie!

Yesterday afternoon Rick O’Shea kindly had us on his show( click here and search for the Rick O’Shea show Tuesday 29th Nov, go to 1:20:55 in the stream) to talk about the appeal and local businesses have hung posters up to let people know that they can drop toys off at St Martin’s house.

Some tips from St Vincent De Paul on the Toys which can be donated:

Here are some gift ideas for boys and girls.

The toy must be new, unwrapped and books and vouchers are great ideas. The best advice is to donate what you would like for yourself/family.

Hope to see you soon at the goldenpages.ie Toy Room!
