The holidays are just around the corner. This time of the year is filled with joy and cheers for most families. The orphaned, abandoned, disabled, and less fortunate children who lack the blessing of family dread the holidays and don’t look forward to it. To make the holiday seasons special for these children who don’t have the luxury to celebrate, the Delano King Foundation hosts an annual Christmas celebration in impoverished communities – sharing the unconditional love of Jesus Christ. We bring joy to these children through gift distribution and by serving nutritious meals to children and families facing food insecurity. The life-changing work of Operation Christmas is best seen in our stories of aid to the orphaned, disabled, abandoned, and less fortunate children and families across Liberia.

2022 Operation Christmas Highlight

The Widows &

The Elderly (2022)

The poor widows and the elderly in Liberia are faced with exclusion and marginalization from the public. The stigmatization of being marginalized by the population has resulted in some of these people living on street corners as beggars or clusters in communities and using the aid of their innocent little children to assist them in begging. Through Operation Christmas, Delano King Foundation distributed rice and essential items to people with disabilities, widows, and the elderly within several communities in and around Monrovia, Liberia. Our two-fold purpose is to minister to their physical needs while sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ.

The Disable Community

Gbarnga, Bong County (2022)

People living with disability in Liberia face many challenges. They often face discrimination and marginalization by the public. The cultural attitude toward disability is largely negative. It is often seen as the result of witchcraft or as punishment for a person’s behavior. The stigmatization of being marginalized by the population has resulted in some of these disabled standings on street corners as beggars or clusters in communities and using the aid of their children to assist them in begging. Against this backdrop, the Delano King Foundation has championed the initiative of restoring hope to the disabled population by giving alms to each disabled person which included foodstuffs, toiletries, and essential items.
