A special Christmas for special children

MANILA, Philippines - Every year, it has been a tradition of Center for Possibilities, Inc. to celebrate Christmas in a special way by sharing it with special children. Every year, CFP makes it a point to always include these children, especially the abandoned ones, in its Christmas celebration to give them joy and bring out priceless smiles on their faces.

CFP held its annual Christmas party at the Reach International School in Makati. Special abandoned children from Virlanie Foundation were invited as well as children from Cottolengo Filipino headed by Fr. Julio Acuesta. Also present were members of the CFP Futkal team headed by coach Peter Amores, a sports team composed of street children who won in the recently concluded Football for Good Challenge. The team was sponsored by CFP founder Dolores Cheng

CFP hosted the party and gave away lots of goodies to the kids who displayed their sweetest smiles. Foton Motors was also there to support CFP’s cause by handing over gift boxes to the children. The children were all very enthusiastic and willingly participated in all the games prepared for them. In return, the CFP Futkal team performed a dance number to show their appreciation for all CFP’s efforts in helping them.
