Aside from celebrating the birth of Jesus, we all know that Christmas is the season of sharing and giving gifts. It is the time, where children are very excited to receive and open gifts. But how about those who are abandoned and street children?
This year, we, together with the Mission Partners of Mary started the street tutorial and feeding. As Christmas day is fast approaching, we ask the children what are their wishes. Some of them said, to eat and play at Mcdonalds. And yes, wish granted!
On the first week of December, through the help of social media we asked some friends and relatives to help us in donating 100pesos per kid to eat and play in Mcdonalds. We aim to gather at least a hundred of street chidren and orphans. And by Dec. 14, we were able to gather them all in one fun and memorable christmas party held at Mcdonalds, Bajada Davao city branch.
Kids were having fun and really enjoying all the surprises. Thanks also to the Mcdo staff for facilitating the games and to all volunteers who find time to be with the kids in this memorable day in their lives. Some of them are first time to eat and play inside mcdo. Most of us, eating in Mcdonalds is just a simple and ordinary thing but for these kids, its precious and something that they really treasure.
THANK YOU so much to all the donors for your generous support in this project. To those who shared their blessings, and campaigned about this project. Even that simple sharing of your 100 pesos “baon” already helped a lot and made these kids smile. Indeed, this the season of giving, sharing, and loving.
