BALANCE PROMOTION

Give a name
to the nameless
Make a profound
difference for
children around the
world with Toybox
this festive season

C

hristmas in Britain still
tends to be a magical time.
People just seem that much
happier. We see more of
friends and family, give and receive
presents and there's that general
festive feeling of positivity and hope
in the air. A few days off work helps as
well, no doubt.
It almost goes without saying,
however, that the same cannot be
said in other countries, which is why
Toybox is such a special organisation.

INVISIBLE NO LONGER
The rise of 'invisible children' across Latin America
is utterly heartbreaking. These are boys and girls
in countries such as Bolivia, Guatemala and El
Salvador who are born and not registered. Who
have no birth certificates and are forced to raise
themselves on the streets.
Toybox is looking to change all that by giving
both a voice to the voiceless and a name to the
nameless. However, your help is needed. After all,
there is much work to be done.
In Guatemala, it is estimated around 700,000
children have no birth certificate, while in Bolivia
around 290,000 children under five aren't
registered. In El Salvador, 52% of children aged 2-14
will have experienced some form of violence in the
past month alone and, with no birth certificate,
these youngsters have no rights to be protected
and are not being recognised by their government.

The UN
estimates the
number of
street children
globally to be in
the hundreds
of millions,
but there is
an absence
of accurate
official figures.

that, but more than 4,000 children have now been
registered, thereby finally receiving a name.
As you can imagine, good though this is, there
is a great deal which still needs to be done. So
whether you make a one-off donation or set up
a monthly gift, your kindness could prove more
profound than you could possibly imagine.
To make a donation, call 01908 360080
or see toybox.org.uk/birthcertificate

MUCH DONE, MUCH TO BE DONE
Thankfully, Toybox is making positive change.
More than 17,000 children globally are currently
being helped, with more than 4,000 children
benefiting from education and training. Not only
