Clean clothes can help keep a child warm and improve their self-esteem
This gift helps us show a street child that someone cares
For children living or working on the streets, lack of clean, warm clothing can lead to serious health risks as well as emotional distress.
Many street children only have one set of clothes to wear every day. Often these do not protect them from harsh weather conditions, particularly during the winter. This leaves them incredibly vulnerable to illnesses like flu and hypothermia. Being forced to wear dirty and tattered clothing can also cause street children to feel stigmatised and ashamed – damaging their sense of self-worth irreparably.
With the gift of a set of clean clothes including socks, a hat, and a jumper, you’ll help keep a child warm and improve their self-esteem.

This work helps our teams’ overcome street children’s deep mistrust of authorities and helps build lasting relationships that enable us to provide ongoing support.
