United Nations commissioned a Western Australian promotions company to devise a project that would benefit special needs children to help celebrate the International Year of the Child in 1979. The result was The Special Children’s Christmas Party. The aim was to give children who may otherwise have missed out on the round of Christmas activities the chance to gather and share the magic of the Festive Season with a group larger than their immediate circle of family and carers. More than twenty years later, the goal remains the same. To gather the children who are sick and disabled and help them forget their troubles for a few hours. To help them see they are not alone. To help them to just be children at an exceptional time of year. In 2004, twenty-nine Special Children’s Christmas Parties were staged around Australia and New Zealand with six of these held in regional Queensland. |
