Christmas is around the corner and you can make a child’s heart happy by giving a special gift to a child in foster care or a child in one of our care homes. CPI SA realises that COVID-19 will have a lasting effect on our children. Christmas 2020 is going to be much different than previous years and it is important that every child feels even more special and loved on Christmas Day. We can’t allow COVID-19 to take away our children’s Christmas cheer.
