In December 2012 Lauren decided to make some Christmas cards, jewellery items and other things that would make perfect little Christmas gifts. She thought she might sell them to friends and neighbours and donate the proceeds to I Give A Buck! When she told her friend Jassie about it, Jassie was only too pleased to help.
With less than a week before Christmas we got an update that the girls had raised $68 – which we thought was pretty great. Then, with the help of Lauren’s younger brother James and friend Casey, they donned their Christmas hats and did a final round of the neighbouring streets (with mum Louise) and by the end of the night they’d raised the total to a whopping $167.70!
Louise said that they all had a lovely time and that the expereince was really rewarding for them all – it might even become an annual event!
We think that the kids are pretty special and that the world will be in good hands in the future if there were more kids like these four. Thanks kids!
