Dear Kate and the team,
We are deeply appreciative of your very generous donation to Kids Company. Your help means a great deal to our children at this time of year.
As Christmas draws near our children are often, sadly, filled with a sense of dread. They worry about the loneliness compared to promises of family gatherings portrayed in the media and all around them. On Christmas day, some 800 of these kids come to our premises. The team at Kids Company endeavour to protect them against the depletion by opening our centre on Christmas Day and providing each child with a bag of individually wrapped presents, as well as a Christmas lunch. For those living on their own we pack take away boxes full of food so they have something to eat on Boxing Day whilst the rest of us recover from the feat! I'm going to put some of your donation towards the catering for the day and use the rest of it to buy some winter jackets for the children.
Kind regards,
Camila Batmanghelidjh.

We at The Curious Room are very pleased that the proceeds of our first production were so well put to use and think everyone involved should feel very proud of their efforts.
