The Snowball Effect
As the winter weather sets in here in the UK, Darfur is becoming hotter and drier, and your donations of blankets, mosquito nets, goats and donkeys are having an incredible impact out in Darfur.
The five villages we have adopted this year have now received their goats,mosquito nets and blankets. A cup of milk a day for a child in Darfur, a blanket to keep them warm at night, a mosquito net - these simple things keep them safe, stave off off malnutrition and stop them from succombing to chest infections. They are so weak, this literally is the difference between life and death for these little ones.
And the snowball effect? We are hearing wonderful reports from villages we adopted in previous years, bearing witness to the wonderful difference these simple things make. Children here are well enough to go to school, they have the chance to get an education, and some of the children from our earliest projects are even at university now, 9 years since their village was adopted. Your support for Kids for Kids means hope for a better future, and you are transforming lives.
We have a long list of villages who are hoping and praying to be chosen as the next village to be adopted by Kids for Kids. With your generous support we can transform more lives. Thank you for remembering the people of Darfur this Christmas.
With our warmest Christmas wishes to you from the Kids for Kids Team
