Every year in December the Foundation of Vlad Plahotniuc “Edelweiss” helps Santa Claus and goes to visit children providing gifts. The kids from the “Fluturas” kindergarten in Miclesti village Criuleni district have organized themselves in advance and wrote the Santa Claus about what they want to receive for Christmas. Their story impressed us, and thus they were the first ones we visited and next to which we started the Christmas campaign.
 
“We came here because we knew we were awaited, the children of this institution wrote a letter to the Foundation together with the principal, asking us to bring them together with Santa Claus educational games and sweets and enjoy a beautiful holiday together”, said the Executive Director of the “Edelweiss” Foundation Lidia Cucos.

The little ones most of all enjoyed the giant Christmas tree, which they dressed together with the Foundation’s representatives. Dozens of fun and educational games, as well as many toys were put under the tree. Another present that excited them was a slide from which one could barely pull them away. Neither Santa Claus missed the event.

Now, when there are new toys, kids say that they have an additional reason to go to kindergarten.
“I like toys as well as the kindergarten, so much”, “We received chocolates, candies, as well as toys. Super!”, “Dear guests, thank you for your gifts, we are waiting for you the next year” - these were just a few of the comments of the kids.

The administration of the kindergarten says that the gifts they received from our team will be of great use to them.
“All the toys we received today from the Edelweiss Foundation are welcome. These toys are very useful that will serve as for a quality educational process in kindergarten and for day-to-day activities”, said the Principal Maria Butucel.
 
The Mayor of the village also was present at the event in the “Fluturas” kindergarten.
“Seeing the faces of these wonderful, joyful, smiling children motivates us to make as many investments as possible in these little children because they are our future”, said the Mayor Iurie Buga.
This was the first action of the Foundation of Vlad Plahotniuc “Edelweiss” under the traditional Christmas campaign and we look forward to reach as many children as possible from all over the country.
