A question about : Gift wish list (Ј2.99 items) for kids who won't get a gift
Hi, I've been asking my friends if they would be willing to order a Ј2.99 bubble wand from a John lewis gift list for a child who without the gift list wouldn't receive a present this Christmas,
It's organised by Kids Company (fantastic charity and although a charity I thought this post was more suited to this board) who do a big party on Christmas Day and give children a gift (plus lunch and food to go home with) after finding suicide attempts in the children they help shot up approaching Christmas as kids were scared of being alone at Christmas 
Could you help? I'm focusing on finding people to send the bubble wands but there are other items for a range of ages from baby blankets to toy cars to DVDs. Details

How we can have children in our country in this day and age suffering so much is beyond me

- Hi, great charity, hope you get plenty of support.
- Just sent mine ,good work Vicky. I will do this every year and stop sending Xmas cards.
- Just sent mine. Good luck
Just a thought, maybe include a link to the charity in your opening post so people can see its genuine - I googled it just to double check - That's such a nice idea. I love bubbles too so got a couple of wands. Hopefully they'll reach their target.
- Just sent one
- Ive also put the link on my FB page to spread the word wider
- Hi Vikki, I've bought 3 bubble wands to add to your total, what you are doing is fantastic, thanks for bringing it to my attention. Merry Christmas xxxx
- Just bought some bubbles & a little Peppa Pig toy It's a great idea to use a wishlist to send gifts to those who need them most xx
- Just one left now - happy birthday for the 21st Vikki
- I couldn't see any bubble wands so I have ordered some paints that didn't seem to be getting much attention lol, I hope that all the gifts get bought for the children. We have a similar thing where I live its called the giving tree, I have also given some presents to this too.
x - What a brilliant cause, I will be ordering a couple of things on the list when I get home
- I bought a traditional ballerina box as my daughter had one for her birthday when she was 8 or 9 and loved it.
Hope the charity gets all the presnts the need as it is a bad situation that there are children with so little in this country.
