Helping SA - Christmas drive for needy children and forgotten elderly we have 8 Weeks left! We will have different closed parties for destitute children out of different areas and communities, following proper COVID-19 requirements, also for the elderly and mentally disabled adults who have suffered dramatically through this year. Our aim is to give them a special day where they will have fun, feel loved and get spoiled with treats and gifts, one of the drive's goal is collecting Christmas presents and food parcels for children from destitute families for Christmas day where the parents will give it to them so that the family together can have Christmas, our aim is to make children happy but not to take that joy away from their parents and a family day, the families will have a proper meal on Christmas day. The main aim of this drive is to provide the families and elderly with more food parcels during this time. As the Children relied on the meal they received at school, they will not be receiving this meal during the school break so we need to ensure that we can replace that meal, Christmas gifts and parties is a sensitive subject never-mind walking around in the streets during the festive season trying to find something to eat for them and their younger siblings. We will not allow the current situations in the world to become an excuse not to show love to the needy, we will show more love and care! There's nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and know Santa did not visit you once again and the feast to look forward to will be the same as always, bread or nothing at all Christmas... Is not an eternal event at all, but a piece of a child's memory, they will always carry in their heart. Again like last year we asked the children for their Christmas wishes, this is some of their answers: * “I want to see my mommy smile again”, * “Enough bread for my family” * “shoes for me and my brother”. The fundraising will be done by asking for a R100 donation, in return, you will receive a beautiful Helping SA’s Christmas Supporters Keyring (symbolic of the light you shined on to others by assisting with this drive), and an invoice to claim back from tax please also view our site to see our previous Christmas drives please help us to make this one a memorable one for all. Last year we were able to fill most of the children's Christmas wishes, please help us to fill their wishes again this year, the gift and Christmas meal you are sponsoring will be the only gift they will receive this year. These children have already missed the chance this year to receive a cake or a gift on their birthday let's not make them miss out on Christmas as well, we can make it possible to give them smiles again. YOU CAN MAKE THIS A CHRISTMAS TO REMEMBER. As all of us are starting to make plans for the festive season that is upon us to spend time with our families, these children have nothing to look forward to, not a Christmas meal or present and they will have little or even no food during the festive season, most relied on the lunch they received at school, but without our assistance during the school holidays will not receive much to eat if any, but with your assistance, we can change this and give them something to look forward to. There are so many children who go to bed hungry that ask themselves " why me what have I done", it is difficult for children to keep their faith strong and to keep on trying. We have the power to change this by showing them a little bit of love and understanding, there is a candle burning in every soul and we need to keep that candle burning. Because we procure in bulk we are able to assist more with less; R50 – 2 Children / Elderly have food for 1 day R 100 – 2 Children / Elderly have food for 2 days R 500 – 2 Children / Elderly have food for 10 days R 1000 – 2 Children / Elderly have food for 20 days R5000 – 2 Children / Elderly have food for 3 months R10’000 – 2 Children / Elderly have food for 6 Months (186 days) If you are doing a donation through the bank for this project, please reply to this email to ensure you receive your Invoice and Key Ring I sincerely hope you will be able to find it in your heart to support these efforts. We need them to find strength in us. We are their remaining hope. We cannot abandon them at this time. We must work harder every day to affect change and improve the lives of the needy.
