Let’s celebrate Christmas with Orphan Children!

Christmas is a time of love, sharing and giving. MicroCharity is inviting you to celebrate Christmas with orphan children.

You can sponsor gifts for an orphan child with Rs. 500/-. Our target is to bring gifts to at least 100 children from multiple orphanages. The gifts include toys and play items and other gifts as suggested by the orphanages according to their requirements.

About 20 million children, about 4% of the population of India are orphan. Of them, parents of only 0.3% children have died and rest have been abandoned. Let’s make this Christmas celebration meaningful by bringing smiles to a few of these children.

St. Antony’s Girls Home, Thottakkattukara, Aluva, Kerala is home to 60 children in the age group of 10 to 17. All of them are students in a school nearby. The proposed individual gift pack includes a steel thali plate, a stool, and chocolates. The gifts they can share are a water purifier, and play items. All these are for their daily use, and we are sure they will be delighted to receive these gifts.

We are also bringing gifts to 50 children of Assissi Baby Sadan, Panacheppally, Kerala. The children are in need of study materials. The proposed gift pack includes Books, Pens, Pencil Box, and Chocolates. They also get play items like footballs, cricket bats and so on.

MicroCharity is happy to announce that fund raising for this cause is completed. We have raised Rs 55,000 from 27 different donations.

We arranged Christmas Celebrations at Baby Sadan, Panacheppally. We had allocated Rs 25,000 to this orphanage. It started with Cake cutting, distribution of gifts and some great food. Our volunteers spend some quality time with the children. Rs 8,000 was spend on  food and cake, and the remaining on buying gifts for children, which includes play items , books, soap, shampoo, footwear, pens etc. We had chosen the gifts by understanding the needs of the children. Thanks to all donors for making these children happy.
