No matter your background, level of schooling and the degree to which you think parents are responsible for their children (and they are responsible for sure), the fact remains that too many 5 year olds, 7 years olds, and 12 year olds find themselves with great needs.
Kids are left without the proper foods, don't have a decent school uniform, are lacking warm winter clothing, often don't have the proper school resources and more. Worse yet, these children might very well be homeless. The result...well, you can figure it out. Children living in such dire circumstances are likely to be despondent, without hope and left in the lurch. What will happen to these kids?
As the weather turns colder and the holidays are upon us, our charity recognizes that this is a situation that has to change. We are all the better when we see to it that our fellow citizens, in this case school children, have their needs met while lifting their spirits.
People DO lift up others and our volunteers and donors will do just that.
