Children in need

Imagine a Christmas filled with the magic of gifts, smiles, and unforgettable memories. We believe every child deserves to experience the warmth and joy of the holidays, particularly those whose lives are already filled with challenges and hardship.

In Costa Rica, there are over 100 children who, for various reasons have been removed from their parents, and the center they live in has no money for Christmas. With your help SMASH means to create a Children's Christmas Party and get them all a small present for Christmas Day.

We are reaching out to our community and beyond, seeking your support to create some joy in these children's lives. Your generous donations will go towards purchasing gifts for each child, as well as organizing a party with activities, decorations, and treats. Some of the money and volunteers are in place but we can't give half of the children a present and leave the other half out so anything you do will be worth double. Your generosity will make Christmas magic for a child in need
