Presents for everyone

Every child, rich or poor, hopes Santa Claus will deliver a gift for them to open at Christmas time.

Santa had help from the community service group at Crawford North Coast, who joined the annual Orphan Fund gift drive and worked hard to give orphans a little happiness this Christmas.

The high school pupils collected a large number of amazing toys, which were wrapped with love and labelled to make sure the presents go to a boy or girl of the appropriate age.

Thanks to their dedication to help those less fortunate children on the North Coast, many little faces will light up with bright smiles this festive season.

These gifts will be among those given at a special Christmas party at Blythdale Beach for 200 children from four different orphan groups on December 16.
