“Every year, she is joined by the CPF, Alfpa and MML Security, along with many of Santa’s helpers from the community, to make Christmas special for the less fortunate.”
“A small act of kindness goes a long way, and to see all the smiles makes it worth all the effort,” Chelldrie said.
Marchell thanked the members of the community who donated sweets packets and soft toys to ensure every child received a present on the day.
“In 2024, we will go bigger to ensure every child enjoys a merry Christmas.”
