Give a giftShare God’s love this Christmas
And by donating to our appeal, you’ll enable more than 2.3 million children* globally to hear the wonderful truth of God’s life-changing love for them as they attend a Christmas celebration hosted by their local church. This is a brilliant opportunity for our church partners to invite children’s families and whole communities to come and hear the wonderful Christmas story. For some families, it may be the first time they hear the gospel! The gifts and food they’ll receive thanks to your generosity are a practical demonstration of God’s faithfulness and care.
*All donations to the Compassion Christmas Appeal are pooled and used to purchase and distribute gifts for every child in our projects. Our local project staff work hard to hand-pick appropriate gifts that suit the specific needs of each individual child.
Send your Christmas greeting.

Your Christmas questions answered
Some of the questions you may have about sending a greeting or giving to our Christmas Appeal.
Yes! Every penny of donations to our Christmas Appeal goes towards personalised gifts for children and project Christmas celebrations. We can afford to do this because the Gift Aid on Christmas donations is used to pay for the fundraising and administration of our Christmas Appeal.
Absolutely, and we’d really encourage you to. We’ll do everything we can to deliver your message in time, but please try and write as soon as possible. Even if your message doesn’t quite arrive on time, it will still bring great joy to your sponsored child to know that you’re thinking of them. Simply visit compassionuk.org/Christmas to send a message of encouragement.
With more than 2.3 million children registered in Compassion projects around the world, it takes time for our project staff to select appropriate presents for every child depending on their individual needs. Writing your greeting as early as possible gives us enough time to process, translate and arrange the delivery of all our sponsors’ messages.
