The Hungarian Baptist Charity has collected 50,930 individual donations packed in shoe boxes to be given as Christmas presents to children in poor families, the charity told MTI.

The charity said that some 10,000 donations had poured in in the last two days of the popular Shoe Box Campaign, held for the 18th time this year.

Some of the boxes will go to ethnic Hungarian children in Romania and Ukraine.
