The Education Authority is delighted to be partnering with St Vincent de Paul and the Salvation Army to play our part in supporting the Christmas Family Appeal for the forth year in succession.

This Appeal is vital to meet the needs of tens of thousands of children in Northern Ireland who live in poverty and deserve the joy of receiving a present to open this Christmas morning.

We are asking all EA schools and services to support EA’s Christmas Family Appeal by donating online

Donate to EA’s Family Appeal today at https://www.justgiving.com/page/education-authority-2022

Your online donation will be split evenly between both charities. By making an online donation we all can play our part in making this Christmas as magical as it can be for thousands of our local children and young people.

Please view our launch video here

Our Christmas Family Appeal will run from Thursday 17th November 2022 – Friday 16th December 2022
