Only 39 Days to Christmas

By Andrew Mullens | Kimbilio Support

Christmas at the Day Centre

Hi, as I write this, there are only 39 days to Christmas! The shops are now full of Christmas goodies and families are starting to plan their Christmas activities. In the Democratic Republic of Congo, Christmas is a difficult time for children living on the streets. It is a time when they particularly miss the love of their families and they feel the isolation of their situation.

Thank you so much for your financial support for this Kimbilio Project which aims to bring the joy and excitement of Christmas to these young children and ensure that they feel loved and special. The Kimbilio team of carers in Lubumbashi will be again providing a Christmas dinner at the Day Centre plus games and presents for the streed children. Each of the four Kimbilio houses where many street children stay on a short-term basis will also be putting a special lunch with games and presents. It really is heart-warming to see the joy on the faces of the children. 

So your donations will enable these young children to enjoy Christmas and to feel loved and special. Thank you!
