In December, a special laughter echoed through the streets of Cotonu. On December 20th, Gate Charity held a Christmas charity event in Cotonu, Benin, attracting around 200 children and their families. Starting with children’s toys, this event went beyond simple gift-giving to become a moment of true hope and warmth for children in underprivileged communities.

A Special Gift Sharing with 200 Children and Their Families

This event, organized jointly by Gate Charity and JCI Abomey Calavi Sika, an organization under the International Youth Assembly, was a great success thanks to the interest and participation of the local community. Each child received a variety of toys tailored to their age and interests, demonstrating Gate Charity’s thoughtful approach that respects individual characteristics. The event venue, filled with abundant Christmas food, created a warm atmosphere that strengthened family bonds.

Games, Crafts, Stories… Experiences Beyond Children’s Toys

The true value of this event went beyond just sharing toys. Participating children experienced the true meaning of Christmas through creative games, hands-on craft activities, and storytelling sessions. These interactions not only brought joy to the children but also provided children in vulnerable communities with an opportunity to regain their self-esteem as members of society.

Supporting Vulnerable Groups and Shaping the Future of Global Charity
