All donations received will be given to

Christingle...
The custom of Christingles comes from the Moravian church and since the latter part of the twentieth century has become a part of how many churches mark the season (though Christingle services make take place before or after Christmas).
Its success stems from The Children's Society who encourage and resource churches and schools around the country to hold Christingle services.
What the Christingle Means

The orange represents the world
