It all began in the year 1998 when I thought the best way to bring joy to those deprived faces was to give them a party every Christmas. With the exception of a few years in between I have successfully organised many parties at different locations.
The first was at Solitaire our residence. There were around 30 of them mostly orphans who were being taken care of by the nuns belonging to the order under whom I had done my studies.
We invited some neighbours and a few friends. There was Santa to give a touch of Christmas flavour, lots of gifts, singing of carols, special dancing shows by the kids and many games which were thoroughly enjoyed.
It was at this event that we picked up a girl who we had plans to sponsor her education and take care of her until she settled down.
She was with us for 9 years and today she is happily married with two kids. We built a house for her and took care of her marriage expenses.
This girl got her education and also she learnt the art of making soft toys which we hoped would stand her in good stead whenever she felt the need to stand on her own two feet.
I strongly believe in providing the fishing tackle than the fish which in the long run will add dignity rather than be under one’s obligation for all times.
This event was not the best one in terms of its planning but with experience it became better each time we organised these parties every year from then on.
Each year there have been different groups as some would leave the premises seeking greener pastures as per their capability or join their parents to move on in life. It is now 18 years since this first Christmas party and I have no clue where these children are today. Hope all are doing well in their life.
