Huge thanks

Huge thanks to every single person, who helped us with our Keep a Child Warm initiative this year.

Julia Odie has been inundated with support from so many of you helping to collect, sort and pack the items ready for Operation Orphan‘s distribution later on this year.

The items gathered will be going to Moldova and Ukraine as well as a shipment to help the victims of the Nepal earthquakes.

Thanks to Marianne Raikes, Janette Ruddick, Kathy Manson, Rosemary Jamieson, Rose Reid, Karen Hall, Janette Ruddick, Kathy Manson, Marie Duncan, Breada Johnson (Marie’s granny), Amelie Duncan (age 4, Marie’s daughter) for helping with the pack and sewing blankets together!

What a team effort (and that’s without mentioning all the schools, groups and businesses who were involved in this terrific venture).

Look out for Julia’s trip to Moldova on our website (in November) and updates on the other amazing things Operation Orphan is doing to help create a brighter future for orphans and vulnerable children in our world.

So grateful to you for all your help,
