Christmas gifts for our children – THE CRADLE OF HOPE

Dear CRADLE Friends

CHRISTMAS PARTY AND GIFTS FOR CHILDREN IN NEED

THE CRADLE OF HOPE annually collects Christmas gifts for 170 abandoned, abused, traumatised, orphaned, sick, HIV positive and socially disadvantaged babies, toddlers and teenagers. (We are not supported by the SANTA SHOEBOX PROJECT and therefore have to source our own gifts).

As a NON PROFIT ORGANISATION receiving ZERO funding from the Government it is only with generous gestures from big-hearted people like YOURSELVES that our organisation has been able to undertake and accomplish various projects like this and to ensure to every one of our precious children, that Christmas time is a special time for them too.

Due to legislation to ensure the anonymity of our children we can only publish their names and their ages. No surnames can be made public.

Our Christmas party for our children will be a “closed” party. Unfortunately due to safety and well-being of our children, we cannot allow our children to personally receive gifts from strangers. Please do not request photos of the children receiving the gifts, as the South African Government POPI Act 4 of 2013 prohibits us from doing this.

For a donation of R250, YOUR PREZZIE contents will contain: A new toy – age appropriate; a puzzle; a new t-shirt / new short / new skirt / new shoes; toiletries (toothbrush, toothpaste, face cloth, bar of soap; deodorant / roll-on /shampoo / conditioner for the older children); a packet of sweets; a colouring book and some pencils or crayons; stationery for school going children; a school bag; a small story book and a note-pad for the older children.

Thank you for making this a special Christmas for our CRADLE children. Bless you!

Cradle Blessings,

The Cradle of Hope
