#12thingsatchristmas

Random acts of kindness are fun, and while we cross off No. 3 of our #12ThingsatChristmas promises ‘Do a random act of kindness’, we think that this is one thing on our Christmas List that we will continue during the year. We had a Tea Party for the children of the Reach orphanage at our The t-Lounge by Dilmah on Chatham Street. Dilmah Founder Merrill J. Fernando built our family business around the unique philosophy of making business a matter of human service. This Christmas we decided that we would make our Christmas truly about giving, and so our list of #12thingsatChristmas is meant to share the true spirit of the season with those that may not have a joyful Christmas. Have you begun your list yet?

The Spirit of Christmas is love, and that's what happens in truth but usually just for a few loved ones. This Christmas we are going to express the true reason for the season with 12 things that we will be doing to bring Christmas cheer to some of those who may not receive as much as most. It starts with family - grandma and grandpa, then mum, dad and the others. Our list continues with the sick, the marginalised, neighbour and community. Together with the MJF Kids - children from less privileged communities who benefit from the childrens' programmes of the MJF Foundation - we have a list of the 12 things we want to do this year to share the Christmas Spirit. Please join us with your own Christmas list, and share your ideas for the Season with us on this page.
