Christmas trees full of dreams

Let's be Santas to the children the world has forgotten

What is the ‘Christmas Trees Full of Dreams’ action all about?

‘Christmas Trees Full of Dreams’ is a unique project that gives companies, institutions, schools and other local communities the opportunity to get involved in more than just day-to-day activities – it’s a chance to really help children who are often beyond the reach of standard charity events. Because how do we explain to them that Santa forgot about them, even though they were good?

On the Christmas trees in your company, school or institution will hang handmade baubles on which we have placed the dreams of the children in our care.

Are you not from Warsaw? Not from Poland?

No problem at all. You can organise the action at your place, we will deliver the baubles to you and carry out the whole action remotely. The choice is yours – do you collect the money to buy the presents and transfer them to us at least 2 weeks before the end of the campaign, or do you do the full version, collect the pre-wrapped presents and send them to us? Here it is only up to you – whether you collect money to buy a gift and transfer it to us at least 2 weeks before the end of the action or you act in full version, collect previously wrapped gifts and send them to us by courier (the cost of shipping even a pallet is much lower than the cost of organizing many other actions, so do not be afraid – we will help you to organize it) 🙂

However, if you are not from Poland, it is with a pain in the heart that we recommend raising funds, as the courier delivery in the run-up to Christmas can get stuck along the way. We promise to buy the most wonderful articles and send you a report about it 🙂

How will it all work?

Each bauble is one child’s dream – a request for a gift that is very important to them. Why so important? Because it is a child who has no hope of presents under the Christmas tree.

Employees of your company, parents at school or people connected with the institution can choose a bauble that speaks to their heart, matches their financial possibilities and interests and thus commit to making that dream come true. They then bring the wrapped gift by the deadline.

Each bauble is different, but the value of the gifts is a maximum of £100. At the same time, we also ensure that baubles with symbolic gifts, sets of sweets etc. appear on each Christmas tree, so that everyone can get involved regardless of their financial means.

As a reminder, you can hang a bauble on your home Christmas tree to remind you that this year’s festivities are not only about caring for your loved ones, but also about making a small gesture towards making the world a slightly better place.

Who do we support?

We help children who are often overlooked in other charitable actions: children under the care of family assistants in Social Assistance Centres, children in closed centres for foreigners, as well as our regular charges. These children also have dreams, but usually they do not come true. In order to register children for this campaign, we contact Social Welfare Centres throughout the Warsaw Agglomeration and foundations caring for children in the centres.

But at the end of the day, it is you who can make their Christmas full of joy and hope.

Benefits of taking part in the action

  1. Building social value: by joining Christmas Trees Full of Dreams, you show your employees, customers, school parents and partners that you care not only about business and meeting your core responsibilities, but also about the common good. It’s a great opportunity to reinforce your image as a socially committed organisation that cares about the plight of the little ones. It is also an opportunity to show that you engage in thoughtful actions, where every penny involved goes to those in need who have no other means of receiving support.

  2. Strengthening relationships: working together for a worthy cause brings people together. ‘Christmas Trees Full of Dreams’ is an ideal way to integrate the team at work, parents at school during the festive season, building an atmosphere of cooperation and mutual support.

  3. Joy shared with others: by taking a bauble from the Christmas tree, you become part of a beautiful tradition – it is not only a gesture to one child, but also an inspiration for others to help. This bauble, later hung on your home Christmas tree, will remind you of your contribution to improving the world and add sparkle to this year’s Christmas.

How to join the action?

  1. Contact us to apply for participation. You will find all the ways to do so in the Contact section, but the easiest way is to email aklos@innaprzestrzen.pl or call our office at +48 796 401 236.
    We will determine your possibilities, preferences, the number of children you can bestow (we recommend hanging no more baubles than 20-30% of the number of staff and no more than 1-2/class in a school), and we will arrange a date for hanging baubles.
  2. Set up a Christmas tree at a chosen location in your company, school or institution, on which we hang baubles with children’s dreams. On an agreed date we arrive and hang the baubles together (at Warsaw).
    Make dreams come true – employees, parents or people connected with the institution choose the baubles, register the bauble on the website and then bring the wrapped presents by the appointed date. Make sure all the baubles are gone, and you can organise a joint gift-wrapping at the end of the campaign.
  3. Enjoy the joy – every bauble that hangs on your home Christmas tree will be a reminder that together we are creating a better world, where every child has the chance to have a happy Christmas.

So what? Will you join the ranks of Santa’s elves?

Together we can make this Christmas special not only for our loved ones, but also for children who need support. Help us bring joy where it is needed most.

Only together can we make miracles happen!
