I bet you’re now humming away to yourself right now (and shame on you if it’s the 2004 version)!
For many children Christmas can be a time of devastating loneliness, shame and despair.
Without the Kids Company’s support many children won’t receive simple acts of kindness like a hug, a present or a hot meal. Every year the Kids Company honours the trust children place in them by holding a huge party so that all their children can feel the joy of being a child at Christmas.
Sadly, this year the need is greater than ever. This Christmas day The Kids Company is preparing to welcome over 3500 children and young people, as well as over 200 volunteers. They also expect to support a further 3500 in the community with desperately needed food and gift parcels.
On Christmas day at Kids Company children will enjoy hot food, individually wrapped presents, storytelling, fun and games. They can make hats and puppets, create a Christmas mural or join in fun activities such as football and a bouncy castle! Volunteers work tirelessly with the Kids Company arts team to make a magical Christmas wonderland.
Through children’s laughter we experience the potency of kindness. Please, show you care and take 5 minutes to donate a couple of pounds and help make this a Christmas to Remember for vulnerable children who would otherwise feel abandoned.
