Little Children Fund 501(c)3 (LCF) and its proud members have organized the Colombia Christmas Breakfast 2010 in December for approximately 1,000 less fortunate children in 3 tentative locations in Colombia, South America. We will be raising funds until December 14th 2010 to reach or project’s goals. The children will have the chance to enjoy a healthy breakfast, participate in activities, watch a show and receive a Christmas present.
The Community Centers located in Bogota, Medellin or Armenia have very high concentrations of abandoned children, children who roam the streets begging for money and food and are exploited every day. With your help we can grant the children the gift of love, a hot meal and a smile.
We hope you can help us in our cause, it changes people, the families are grateful, the community rejoices and the children smile for many months remembering the day some of us cared. The impact is huge and we would like to share with you the joy of such a great project.
Kind regards,

PROJECT: TEDDY BEAR 2009
Project Teddy Bear 2009 for Miami Dade's Juvenile Court
DEADLINE HAS BEEN REACHED ON 9/30/2009
* TOTAL FUNDS COLLECTED : $1,477.30 -- 29.54% Collected from $5,000 Goal -- 400 Teddy Bears Purchased
Thank you all for your generous donations!
FUNDS COLLECTED:
We invite you to listen to the interview by National Public Radio (NPR) of a Judge in the Miami Dade Juvenile Court:
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=91252434
Little Children Fund 501(c)3 has found a life changing project close to home and began raising funds to help children by gifting them a Teddy Bear which is given to them in the Juvenile Justice Center because the parents of the children are found guilty of neglect, harm, ill-treatment, violence, exploitation, abuse and many other reasons that a child should not have to go through.
The Teddy Bears are given to the children during the court session by the judges and also during adoption in the judge’s chambers so they have something to hold on to, a friend; a toy. Most of them have never seen a new toy and many others find comfort in this companion that will be going with them on the long journey to the foster care system or with their new adoptive parents.
So please find it in your heart to help and contribute with what you can, and help us change the life of a child by showing them we do care.
We purchase a unique set of Teddy Bears with your contribution from a Teddy Bear wholesaler, that way they all look the same.
