It’s truly the most wonderful time of the year! The local Children’s Dreams campaign, which aims to make Christmas wishes come true for children from families facing social and financial difficulty, has officially fulfilled about 1,800 'dreams' for disadvantaged children. That’s 1,800 happy children this Christmas!

The campaign has been ongoing for the past five years, and is run by the Foundation for Social Welfare Services. It ensures that children in social difficulties receive a gift of their choice for Christmas, and this could include nice clothes, eating in a restaurant, receiving a particular toy or having financial support in their education.

We bet these kids will be smiling from ear to ear this Christmas!

Such a sweet initiative! Merry Christmas, kids!
