This time of year, we would usually get back tens of thousands of boxes but that will not be possible this year, at a time when the developing world needs our help the most. If you can, please donate online or over the phone.

Donations can be made online at www.trocaire.org/ donate/make-a-donation.

Only where it is not possible to donate online are you asked to hold onto your boxes until further notice and Trócaire will be in contact about how to return them when it will be safe for people to do so.
