Christmas is fast approaching and children around the world can’t wait to open their Christmas gift usually left under the Christmas tree or brought to their bedside by Santa. There are, however, many children particularly from vulnerable communities for whom Christmas and Santa is only a dream. That dream was made real for fifty-two Sunshine Kids thanks to the generosity of Santa Claus who travelled all the way to visit them in the rural village of Sambalthivu, Trincomalee, Eastern Province of Sri Lanka. For many, it was the first time they met Santa. The kids performed and sang and later invited Santa to share the food and drink that was served. After a wonderfully spent afternoon, Santa was on his way home. For the Sunshine Kids it will be a Christmas they will never forget!
We also would like to thank YOU, our donors who so generously gave to support our programmes and projects. The funding received has helped the Sunshine Day Care Centre to provide so much for the kids. Thirteen years and we are still going strong thanks to YOU!
From the Trustees of The Sunshine Charity
We wish all our donors, friends, well-wishers and volunteers
Happy Holidays,
A Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year!
