Christmas Parcels 2025 – Thank You❤️

Dear friends,

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the Christmas Parcels 2025 and for the kindness you continue to show. The photos below capture only a small part of what you made possible.

As you look through these images, you will see children who are orphans, or who have been abandoned by one parent. When we first started delivering your gifts, we often said we hope for a day when we will no longer be needed—a day when no child has to live like this. Until then, your support brings warmth, dignity, and hope.

We return to these photos again and again, because behind every smile is a story. Words are not enough to express our gratitude to you, our dear donors.

Every parcel brought enormous joy—joy that is difficult to fully capture in pictures. Teenagers are often missing from photos on purpose. Social media can expose them to bullying, and we want to protect them above all else. Being a teenager without shoes, or having to share one pair of sneakers with a parent just to go to school, is a reality no child should face.

Thank you for every parcel you prepared and sent. Thank you for carrying packages across borders, sometimes even in your airplane luggage, to make sure they reached us. Please never think a parcel is small. Each one is a powerful gift—a seed of hope planted in the heart of a future adult.

Some of you have been with us since 2014, when this initiative began with just 10 children receiving shoes. Drop by drop, year after year, hundreds of children have since received shoes, warmth, and essential support.

Because of you, we have been able to provide washing machines, heating boilers, and even small houses—because every child deserves a place called home. Children who once slept on the streets with their mothers now have a safe corner and a future filled with hope.

Thanks to your financial donations, three families will be able to heat their homes this winter. Twenty children will sleep in warm beds this year because of you.

As you scroll through the photos, you will see why this work matters. Some needs are still urgent, and for those who wish to continue helping, we will share individual updates soon.

Right now, our most urgent needs are:

• Firewood for two families (300 € per family)

• One washing machine

• One refrigerator

• Support for eight children at risk of eviction within the next two months

Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you for being hope.
Thank you for the joy you bring to every child you see here.

Enjoy the photos—just as we cherished every moment of delivering your gifts.

With deep gratitude,
The Happy Links Team
