Christmas toy donation campaigns in Spain and Portugal

Overview

Local organizations in La Orotava, Spain, and Beja, Portugal, have launched charitable initiatives to provide toys for children in need during the Christmas season.

In La Orotava, the City Council announced the ‘Apadrina una ilusión’ campaign. This program asks participants to register as godparents to provide new educational or recreational toys for children from low income families. Municipal social workers will coordinate the assessment of family needs and the distribution of gifts.

In Beja, the Cáritas Diocesana de Beja launched the “Sorrisos para pequenos corações” (Smiles for little hearts) campaign. This initiative accepts both new and used toys, provided that used items are clean, complete, and functional. Donations are being collected at the organization’s facilities through early December.
