Typically, the families we help are working families who do not qualify for assistance from other public or charitable organizations. Not every family who applies will be contacted by us or receive help, but we try to help as many families as we can based on need. We do not serve families who have received assistance from the Forgotten Children’s Fund within the past five years.
Deadline: December 16
Event: Smiles at Christmas
Date: December 6, 2025
Time: To be confirmed
Location: To be confirmed
Every Christmas, Mission Africa organizes an event called “Smiles at Christmas” to benefit poor families in the Renton, Kent, Auburn, Federal Way communities of Washington State.
Parents and/or guardians bring their children to the event, and each child is given donated items such as warm coats, games, clothing, and toys.
Children are entertained with party jumpers, face painting, craft making, cotton candy, popcorn etc. during this event, while their parents or guardians “shop.” The gifts are then packaged so the parents can bring them home without their children knowing the contents.
