As a lot of you know we collect toys and clothes for one of the local orphanages in a town called Debelets. This year we were invited to their christmas party in Veliko Tarnovo.
Today was that day!
The hall was packed with children, families and friends of the orphanage. The young children were very well behaved and sang some songs and even recited a verse or two.
Father Christmas then came in and gave out presents to all the children there, they were so happy.
The press came and are publishing some pictures and doing an editorial. One of them asked if they could interview us! So we will be in the local paper. They wanted to know how we got involved raising clothes etc.
This was a good day, we feel that with help again from Veselina, we have made a small difference to the lives of these children. We will continue to collect items of clothing and toys etc for this orphanage ready for delivery in the spring and again for next christmas.
I would like to take this oppertunity to thank all of those people who have sent us the goods, and taken time out to make clothes or go to charity shops, car boot stalls etc. and send them over to us.
Thank you everyone!
Please keep it coming, these children need our help.
