Early Christmas Celebration with Raintree Foundation’s Foster Kids
Our foster children had an early Christmas celebration this year, on October 23rd. Almost everybody was able to attend and we had 30 children. Our local staff organized the event. The children attended the celebration from their home village, some of the villages lay as far as 40 kilometers away from the event. However, all the children enjoyed the event and the Christmas gifts didn’t miss their effect. This year they received a towel. It may seem a small gift but to these children it is precious. A big thanks to all the foster parents who support one of these children.
