K1 Britannia’s 5th Annual Christmas Angels are back
to encourage the spirit of giving this holiday season
K1 Britannia hosts their fifth annual Christmas Angels program this year, and there’s no better way to give, show and receive love than being an angel for someone in need.
K1 Britannia Foundation initiated the Christmas Angels program five years ago with the intention to support vulnerable groups and local organizations during this time of year. The program has seen the local community come out year after year to make Christmas special and memorable for a child, teenager or elderly. This year, K1 continues the tradition of spreading compassion throughout the island of St. Maarten.
Hundreds of little Christmas angels will be hung on Christmas trees at the Government Administration Building on Pond Island starting tomorrow, Friday, December 14. Each angel was handmade with love by the program’s recipients. The angels represent children under protective custody, Sister Basilia Center clients, elderly persons of White and Yellow Cross Foundation, Mental Health Foundation clients, Ujima Foundation members, children at Player Development SXM or other underprivileged children who need some extra love this Christmas.
