CHRISTMAS OF HOPE - 23 OF DECEMBER 2007

As Christmas approaches, the hopes and wishes of children in Peru grow in anticipation. Unfortunately, the reality is many of these children will have to work and many others will spend Christmas hungry. A wish for thousands of parents who live in poverty is for one moment where their children will feel like children again. In spite of their poverty, parents try to find a way to make their children’s Christmas special. Our support is the hand that makes it possible to turn this hope into a reality for these parents; a smile on a thousand young faces; something warm like hot chocolate and paneton in a thousand little tummies; and a toy in the grateful little hands of a thousand children. The opportunity to share this experience with these parents, helpers, and a thousand children is a very special moment!. This event was done in two Places. en Espanol.
