Something happened a few years ago!
One little girl in China said to Matthew that she could not get her feet warm at winter and it made her cry.......
Another girl asked - "What is this Christmas that people celebrate?"
I am so happy & proud to say that these words changed lives for so many families in Guangxi!
Matthew decided to do something about it!
Matthew has always said that GGEF is not about money, I have always said that Hope4China is not about money...it is about building meaningful relationships with wonderful people, whom we are PROUD to know!
Thanks to Matthew's vision, and knowledge of these wonderful girls, the amazing organisation of the GGEF staff, the wonderful generous sponsorship from people around the world in Hope4China, AFAC, USA and Europe, an amazing military operation was put in place to give each girl in the GGEF Programme :-
a Warm quilt & blanket
a Warm jacket
Gloves & Socks
Hot Water Bottle( first discovered in Scotland:-)
Toiletries
Books
Toys
Personal letters, Photos & Gifts from Sponsors....
This has brought LOVE to our girls from those who care about them all around the world!
I hope it has made them Warm in more ways than one!
Please click on SLIDESHOW & see what you think?
Thank you to EVERYONE who has contributed in whatever way to this small MIRACLE!
Xie Xie to Matthew & Robin & the wonderful GGEF team for making it possible

What an achievement! The smiles on all those gorgeous faces just says it all. I'm so glad to be able to say I contributed even a tiny bit towards all the hard work. Matthew is such a star! Was that the Nativity going on in some of the photos near the end? Just beautiful!!

Yes, the team at Da Mo acted out the Nativity for the children to explain the meaning of Christmas! I doubt they would have heard it before....I wish I could have been there :-)
