Faith in Families is thrilled to announce a special delivery that brought Christmas magic to Swansea this year, as the Amazon Toy Train made its way to our Cwtch Mawr Multibank, packed with the UK’s top ten toys from Amazon. This incredible contribution from Amazon will go directly to children in need in our community, ensuring a brighter holiday season for hundreds of families facing hardship.
In a beautiful display of generosity, Amazon donated these must-have toys through the Multibank charity initiative, which was designed to help families and individuals experiencing poverty. The sight of a life-sized toy train filled with colourful boxes and packages brought immense joy to our staff & volunteers. Most importantly these toys will bring huge joy to children across our community.
“This time of year can be incredibly difficult for families struggling to make ends meet,” said Cherrie Bija, CEO of Faith in Families. “Amazon’s support through this remarkable toy train means so much to us and to the children who will receive these gifts. It’s more than just toys; it’s the gift of hope, happiness, and inclusion during a season when those can be hard to find. We’re deeply grateful for Amazon’s ongoing commitment to making a difference in Swansea.”
This generous initiative helps ensure that more children in Swansea can experience the magic of Christmas. The toys that have been donated include iconic franchises and family favourite brands, such as Hasbro’s Play-Doh Pizza Delivery Scooter Playset and the LEGO Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer Starship Building Toy, as well as other popular toys such as Asmodee’s Taco Cat card game, and Snackles surprise plushies by Zuru catering to a range of ages and interests. These donations don’t just bring joy; they also help create memories, foster creativity, and bring families together during the festive season.
With the holidays fast approaching, Faith in Families will distribute the toys to children across Swansea who might otherwise go without. Thanks to Amazon’s Toy Train and the support of our community, this Christmas promises to be a joyful one for Swansea families who need it most.
At Faith in Families, we are honoured to partner with Amazon in making a meaningful impact in our community. Together, we’re bringing the joy of the season to life, one gift at a time. Thank you Amazon for helping us bring light and hope to so many families, not just at Christmas but throughout the entire year.
