Christmas Gift FAQs


"Deck The Halls OF Their Hearts''


 
 

What delivery address do I use when making a payment?

When ordering Christmas Bundles, you will be asked for a delivery address, which will be auto–filled, you use the postal address of the organization with the name of your child well indicated.

Will my sponsored child receive the bundle I have bought?

The simple answer is ‘yes’ they will.

Will every sponsored child receive a gift?

Absolutely they will. Our aim is to ensure that every sponsored child whom we can deliver a gift to this Christmas will receive something.

What about the children who currently have no sponsor?

We do not wish any of the children to miss out on receiving a gift this Christmas. That’s why we appeal to our supporters who do not sponsor a specific child.

Where will the Christmas Bundle I have chosen be delivered to and when?

The items that make up the various bundles will be purchased in bulk by the team and and then delivered to the children if you prefer them to be bought here. This will happens before Christmas.



If I don’t sponsor a child, can I donate to this scheme?

Yes, please do. The Christmas Gift scheme is open to all who would like to contribute, be that you are a sponsor or not, to ensure that Save Sunshine shelter kids’s children receive a gift at Christmas.

Will you know that my donation is for my sponsored child as there is nowhere to add their name?

Yes, we will know to which child your donation is to be given. Following your donation, we will match your name in our records to the child(ren) you sponsor.

Can I donate any amount I choose to this scheme?

Yes, you may indeed. You need not be limited to the amounts prescribed to each Christmas Bundle. However, you can select multiples of any one Bundle, or a selection of Bundles, should you wish to give more.

Will my sponsored child know that the gift is from me?

Yes, when they receive the gift, they will be told that it is from their sponsor.

Can I send a personal message or Christmas greeting to my sponsored child with the Bundle I have chosen?

No, not directly through this part of our website. However, we would encourage you to write to your sponsored child by sending an email to sponsorshipsunshineshelterkids@gmail.com or a letter and mail it. We will forward this on to our team in Uganda who will deliver it to your sponsored child in due course. Alternatively, you may write a letter and post it.

 
 

Can I send my own parcel instead of selecting a Christmas Bundle from this scheme?

We also believe that the items chosen within the Shop-giving-catalog are truly a ‘best fit’ in the present circumstances for the children and their families. It is also more cost effective than posting items to Uganda (we hear sponsors being charged anywhere from $80 – $100 for postage alone) and often there can be challenges with parcels not arriving or taking a long time to arrive.

Can I let others know about this scheme?

Certainly, please do share this with your friends, family, colleague, places of work, churches, schools etc. Anyone can contribute to this Shop-giving-catalog. If you would like our help in sharing the details of this scheme with others, then please do contact send us an email and our staff will be only too pleased to assist you.

I have another question which is not covered here – who should I speak to?

Please telephone the Save Sunshine Shelter kids (+256750628994) and a member of staff will be pleased to help you with your enquiry. Alternatively, you can email the office thesavesunshineshelterkids@gmail.com and we will respond to your enquiry as soon as we are able.
