This Christmas, team Beacon decided to try and light up the day of the children you see in and around parkstreet. Not the ones tightly held on to by their parents muncing a bag of chips but the ones standing in a corner trying to sell you a balloon or a hat to earn a meal. The child hidden inside her mother's torn shawl, too scared to say her real name when asked. The girl-child too scared to take a meal box when given one. The one whom you bargain with for a santa-cap when you come to ParkStreet for a walk with your friends. The ones we are accustomed to just looking over. They deserve gifts too. Not used gifts thrown in a lot, but brand-new seald ones, hand packed and decorated with love.
