L.I.V.E. Christmas appeal for Malaga Children’s Home – “La Cuidad de Los Ninos”

L.I.V.E is the local expat charity supporting the Malaga Children’s Home “La Cuidad de los Ninos”.

Every year the charity holds a Christmas party for nearly 200 children that the Children’s Home cares for.

This year's party is being held in Nerja on Tuesday 8th December.

The children of “La Cuidad de los Ninos” have been rescued by the local authority from terrible, inhumane depravation.  There are more than 50 residents living in the Home run by Brother Juan.  In addition, the Home provides a safe haven for food, clothing, warmth and schooling for a further 100+ children brought into the Home on a daily basis from the nearby poverty-stricken shanty town.

The children in the home range from aged 2 – 18.

THEY NEED YOUR HELP

They are asking for donations of gifts and presents for their Annual Christmas Party.

Please wrap each gift and clearly mark whether it is for a boy or a girl.

“These children have so very little of their own” says Brian Marsh, Chairman of L.I.V.E. “if the expat community can contribute something, anything, we can send a strong signal to these young boys and girls that despite the difficult financial times we find ourselves in someone still cares about them”.

As always throughout the year, they are also keen for donations of clothing, toiletries, food or money. The Home and the resident children are very much dependent on your donations.

Drop off points for donation of presents and other goods are:

CURRENCIES DIRECT
Plaza de las Orquideas, Local 5, Nueva Andalucia

METRO RESTAURANT in Puerto Banus

BLACK CAT BAR, Las Postas Commercial Centre, Calahonda

OFFEX, Marbella Business Centre, Elviria

Money donations can be made by visiting the L.I.V.E. website www.live-spain.org.

L.I.V.E. would also like to take this opportunity to give a big THANK YOU to everyone who has donated money, goods and time to L.I.V.E. in 2009. Your efforts have made a huge difference to the children and are appreciated. Every little helps!
