Tomorrow magazine has supported the children’s home in Lagos for almost 10 years. And as another year passes, it was wonderful to attend another successful Christmas party for all the children living in the home. The lovely lunch was enjoyed at Munich on the Lagos Avenida overlooking the marina.
The owner, Michael, kindly subsidised the delicious food, and the Tomorrow Algarve Charity Trust (T.A.C.T) covered the cost. The marvellous CASLAS volunteers provided the beautifully wrapped gifts, and seeing the children receive their gifts and vouchers was a real pleasure.
Earlier in the month, our editor, Sophie, popped along to CASLAS to see the children from Aljezur and Barlovento International schools delivering their gifts to the children. Each class contributed Christmas gifts and they also bought a surprise box of fun. The children from the residential home showed their gratitude by baking cookies as a thank-you for their gifts.
Their offerings were combined with the Christmas shoebox campaign run by Lois Herrington. Her email is below should you wish to create a box of treats for one of the children next year.
It is very pleasing for me and the Tomorrow team to see what our readers’ support brings to all the causes we support. We never forget that your generosity means such a lot to the local underprivileged children and families.
Well done to you all and I wish everyone a great 2024.
