wish list

27 May 2011
I wish that the world was without poverty, and every child born was loved and cared for.
I wish that all children were free from neglect and abuse.
I wish every child was safe and happy.
I wish every child could go to sleep in a bed & wake up to a breakfast.
I wish that all children who are suffering could be brought home to the Happy House.
Please help us to ‘Make a Difference?’ to the lives of so many unhappy, forgotten, vulnerable children.

We desperately need sponsors for the Happy House Kids. A fantastic present to your loved one would be to sponsor a child. £200 a year will give a very vulnerable child a future to look forward to. This can be done by a monthly standing order. Please visit our Sponsored Child Scheme page.
The Happy House is built within 4 acres of land that was donated to the charity. We are trying to make the Happy House as self sufficient as possible, by growing as much food as possible. We could buy local cows at £50 but they do not produce much milk. We are also home to chickens, ducks and turkeys's. We have 7 greenhouses where we are growing lots of vegetables, spinach, carrots, kale, tomatoes, plus passion fruit, bananas and oranges. If you could send us some seeds for pumpkins, beans, peas, carrots etc it would be a great help as the seeds here seem very weak and very often don't take.
To cut costs we are baking our own bread daily, therefore we need yeast. Biscuits and cakes are also being made. There are so many clothes to wash that large amounts of soap powder is needed.
Our Wish List is for things that still cost us money. Dry goods, such as rice and flour, beans, sugar, maize flour etc.
I do not know the cost of everything but I will list what is needed, if you are visiting us here at the Happy House, maybe a few items would fit in your suitcase. Instead of paying for excess baggage, which is such a waste of money, lots of things needed can be purchased here which also helps the local economy.
