A Special Celebration with Children and Kids with Special Needs

For over four years, The Remi Odesola foundation has been honored to celebrate Christmas with orphans and children with special needs. Each year, we bring joy to their hearts by creating a festive, family-like atmosphere where they can experience the warmth and love of the season. Our Christmas celebrations are designed to make them feel like they’re at home, surrounded by family, laughter, and care.

Before Christmas Day, our team takes the time to visit the children at their homes. During these visits, we get to know each child, learning their names, preferences, and specific needs. This personal touch allows us to buy gifts that are meaningful and useful to each child, ensuring that they receive exactly what they need. We carefully wrap each gift with love, making sure it reflects the thoughtfulness behind it.

On Christmas Day, we transform the space into a holiday wonderland, complete with food, drinks, and Santa-style surprises. The highlight of the day is when the children receive their carefully chosen gifts. Their faces light up with joy as they unwrap their presents, and their happiness is a reminder of the power of love and kindness. We play games, sing carols, and share special moments that make the day unforgettable.

This celebration isn’t just about one day of festivities; it’s about making a lasting impact in the lives of these children. We want them to know they are loved and valued, not just during Christmas, but throughout the year. The joy, laughter, and smiles we see on their faces are the greatest gifts we could ever receive.

As we continue this tradition, we remain deeply grateful to our volunteers, donors, and supporters whose generosity makes these celebrations possible. Each year, we’re reminded of the power of community, and we look forward to many more years of sharing love and joy with these incredible children.
