Star of HOPE

Most orphans and vulnerable children in Munsieville live in poverty and never get a chance to celebrate Christmas. So every year, as part of The Thoughtful Path: Munsieville, the whole community works together to present the “Tshepo (meaning Hope) Festival – a celebration of Christmas, children and better health for all”.

You can make a lasting impact on the lives of the children of Munsieville by becoming a Star of HOPE, in support of the Tshepo Festival. Funds raised through this appeal go towards the event to provide the children with a gift, a meal, entertainment and live-enhancing health messages. Any additional funds raised support the ongoing work of The Thoughtful Path: Munsieville, to transform the lives of orphans and other vulnerable in the community.

Schoolchildren can get involved too by decorating stars and adding a message to the children of Munsieville on the reverse. We ask for a £1 donation (or 1 euro or $2) for each star and all the Stars of HOPE are placed on a Christmas tree and the surrounding area of the township to allow the Munsieville community to see the support from people around the world. Check out the video of the stars made for the 2011 festival here
