A Dedicated Child with a Plan

This moved him deeply and he felt compelled to do something to help putting his thoughts and ideas into action.
His determination was coupled with his sharp thinking and he set to work on a plan to create a food bank. He spent his days setting up and organizing the donated goods and he scrubbed the floor of his garden shed to make space for them.

With Christmas fast approaching Isaac has now launched his “gift bank” just in time for the festive season. The gift bank received donations of hundreds of toys and presents for underprivileged children from all over the world.
To store all the toys and gifts the local Greenland Pub has generously offered its space. Isaac said he wants to ensure that as many children as possible celebrate without worrying about what is under the tree. He is dedicating his weekends and spare time to make sure this happens.

The gift bank has been a tremendous success with more than 200 children already having received gifts since its doors opened last week. Isaac and his family have scheduled an additional three present bank days at the pub and will put on more dates if there is still demand.
