Bring Christmas Joy to Every Child

It's a beautiful thing to see the joy on a child's face when they receive a Christmas gift. But many parents living in poverty can't afford to give their children a present, as much as they'd love to. Your donation will be pooled with others to ensure all children in Compassion’s projects receive something special this Christmas. These gifts are thoughtfully chosen by our local church partners who know what will bless them most.

Gifts may include food, clothing, shoes, school supplies, blankets, hygiene supplies or toys. Wherever possible, our church partners purchase the gifts within their own communities, encouraging local businesses and boosting the local economy.

In countries that are significantly affected by crises, it’s likely that staff will prioritise gifts that meet essential needs—for example, by selecting gifts like food or clothes rather than toys. If necessary, gifts may be given as direct cash so that a child's caregivers can decide how best to use the money to provide for their families.

It's Bonheur's first Christmas gift. It's the first gift he has ever received. That's why he is super excited. As a single mother, I don't have the luxury of buying him a gift, as I get little money from digging to feed us.
