The Children’s Village at Christian City Asks For Help With Needs List

Two boys who live at The Children’s Village with

by Mrs. Mary Ruth Kimsey, a resident of Christian City.


The Children’s Village at Christian City is in need of the following items and would appreciate any help the community can provide:

Sponsor A Child: Choose a boy or a girl to sponsor and receive a photo, profile and regular updates. $30 a month helps to pay for basic needs such as food, clothing and education

· Gift cards to Wal-Mart, Target, Kroger, or Publix

· Cleaning supplies

· Zip-lock bags

· Canned fruits and vegetables

· Peanut butter

· Individually wrapped snacks and drinks
