I am godmother to a child who is quite poor, she is 4 years old, it was her birthday recently. I’d like to get her a gift that she can somehow share with her 3 other sisters. I often give her milk, snacks for her to take to school, i also look for nice used clothes for her but what would be a special gift she and her sisters can play with? Any ideas? Specific please.
oldest sister is around 10 years old. next is is around 6. the youngest is just 4 months. dad doesn’t support them at all anymore. i’m talking dirt poor. when they run out of formula, the mom sometimes gives them sugar water. no dvd player or anything for watching movies. we godparents donate money to help with tuition fees. tuition is ridiculously cheap here by most countries’ standards…US20 a year, which is already a lot for them. by the way this is in the philippines so no such thing as government support in terms of a monthly check.

I am President of the Board of Directors for my local volunteer fire department. Every year we have a recognition holiday dinner, and the Board gives something “useful” to the firefighters as a Christmas gift. In the past we’ve done t-shirts, long sleeve t-shirts, Leatherman multi-tools, hoodies, sweatshirts, polos, jackets, etc. What would be a unique, useful gift to give the firefighters that costs between $18 and $25 each?
