100 Smiles for Christmas
This Christmas, you or your company, have the chance to create a smile that truly matters. The purpose of this campaign is simple: to bring joy, warmth and a meaningful Christmas memory to 100 orphan children in Lebanon - children who deserve to feel the magic of being a kid, even if only for one day.
When you donate a smile, your contribution covers a proper Christmas gift, a meal, transportation, and a full day of play, celebration and entertainment for one child. Every dollar goes directly to the children - nothing is taken out for administration or fees.
To make sure everything is delivered exactly as promised, I will personally travel to Lebanon in December to hand over the gifts and be present throughout the entire Christmas celebration. Your support won’t disappear into a system, it will reach the children directly, and I’ll be there myself to ensure that.
You, or your company, will also receive a personal Certificate of Contribution, along with updates and photos from the Christmas celebration, so you can see the joy you helped create and the smile you brought to life.
Together with the trusted local organization Samah Projects, we will organise a Christmas day filled with gifts, food and playful activities for the children.
You can donate one or more smiles below. While the goal is to reach 100 children, any additional support will allow us to bring Christmas to even more.
Let’s make this Christmas unforgettable for the children who need joy, warmth and hope the most. One gift, one child, one smile.
