The excitement is building at Christ Foundation Orphanage Home in Kuje, Abuja, as the date for the annual Christmas party draws near. On December 13th, the children will come together to celebrate with a vibrant event filled with dance, drama, and joyful moments.

Preparing for the Big Day


The preparations for the Christmas party have been underway for weeks. The children are actively involved in rehearsing various performances, including traditional dances and drama skits that tell stories of hope and joy. These activities help build their confidence and teamwork skills.


The staff and volunteers at the orphanage have organized practice sessions every afternoon. They focus on:


  • Dance routines that blend cultural heritage with festive themes

  • Drama performances that highlight values like kindness and gratitude

  • Singing and musical acts to add melody to the celebration


Each child has a role, whether on stage or behind the scenes, ensuring everyone feels included and valued.


Community Support and Involvement


The success of the party depends heavily on the generosity of donors and philanthropists who provide resources and encouragement. Contributions help cover costs for costumes, decorations, food, and gifts for the children. This support creates an environment where the children can enjoy a memorable and joyful experience.


Volunteers also play a vital role by assisting with logistics, helping the children prepare, and setting up the venue. Their dedication ensures the event runs smoothly and safely.

The Impact of the Celebration


The annual Christmas party is more than entertainment. Many of these children face challenges daily, and this event offers a break filled with laughter and happiness.


The performances allow the children to showcase their talents, boosting their self-esteem. For example, last year, a shy child who had never spoken in public performed a solo dance and received applause that changed her outlook. Stories like this highlight the power of such events.


The party also strengthens bonds among the children and between the orphanage and the wider community. It reminds everyone involved that these children are supported and cherished.
