For the last three years, NEPOMAK UK has successfully run its annual Santa Shoe Box campaign delivering gifts to vulnerable and impoverished children in Cyprus and to the school children enclaved in Rizokarpasso.

Given the unfortunate difficulties and limitations that the Coronavirus pandemic has brought upon us, we are sadly unable to run our Santa Shoebox campaign this year, but vulnerable children in Cyprus need our help now, more than ever before. This year, NEPOMAK UK is running a range of remote community-centred events to raise money which we will donate to directly to charities supporting children in Cyprus.

This year we will be working with two charities: (1) Caritas Cyprus, who have already assisted more than 3200 families this year and currently support 700 vulnerable children in Cyprus; and (2) Help Rizokarpasso UK, who support the schoolchildren enclaved in Rizokarpasso by providing essential charitable aid.

One such initiative is our month-long experience of Christmas charity challenges for all age groups. Our challenges will take place from 1st-25th December and they can all be done from home; we just ask you to submit your photo with the hashtag #NEPOMAK25DaysofChristmas and tag us @NEPOMAKUK.

We will announce each daily challenge on our social media in the morning and you will have the day to submit photos/videos of you doing the challenge to us. We will share the best submissions at the end of the day.

Wherever you are in the UK, join us as we embark on a month-long extravaganza of creative, community and family-based challenges and raise money for a fantastic cause at the same time!
