Through sales of its limited edition gift hampers, which contain treats like French chocolates and fine preserves, the company hopes to raise $38,000 for The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund.

Two hundred and twenty of the hampers are available - 100 hampers at $120 each, 100 at $200 each, and 20 at $300 each.

The hampers can be purchased online from today at www.noelgifts.com, and by phone from tomorrow on 6299-1155.

Dec 15 is the last day for orders, while Dec 16 is the last day for deliveries.

All proceeds from sales of the hampers will be donated to the pocket money fund.

For the past two years, Noel Gifts has designed, packed and delivered the popular Posh Nosh Christmas hampers, with the goodies inside sponsored by their gourmet purveyors.

'Our contribution last year to The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund was a thoroughly rewarding experience,' said Noel Gifts managing director Alfred Wong.

'So this time round, we wanted to continue the Christmas spirit of giving and blessing those in need.'
