Christmas Bags on Christmas Eve

In order to let the less fortunate children receive presents on a Christmas Day, You Dao received help from different groups of volunteers to share the joy of giving and receiving. Preparation for this started early in November. A label listed the name, age and gender of our sponsored child on a Christmas bag. The groups of volunteers filled the bags with toys, gloves & scarfs, socks, clothes and many more items for each single child. After collection of all the bags, our staff delivered them to the children at their school or to their home on Christmas Eve. Through the effort of the volunteers, our migrant children felt warmth and love despite the cold winter days. Parents also expressed their appreciation to all the volunteers.

Special thanks to YCIS Pudong, Charmaine Loh & friends, Helen Anson & friends, Simona Obialero & her “Friends Forever”, and Ken & Lucy.
