Mango brings Christmas cheer to Cali, Colombia

An organization in Cali, Colombia, called Funof (http://www.funof.org/), is dedicated to getting working children off the streets and back into school so that they can study and be kids.

These children, ranging in age from 7-15 years old, oftentimes work selling gum or fruit, windshield washing, and peddling other various products and services on the streets. These children need to work because either their families don't have enough money to buy food and other basic necessities, or they don't even have parents to care for them in the first place.

With the donation from Mango we were able to buy gifts for over 200 of these children and to personally visit one of their centers to hand out gifts and food to about 150 of them.
