Former Big Brother Africa House Mate Confidence Kick Starts Her ‘Project Smile’ Foundation As She Celebrates Christmas Eve With Children At Ridge, Korle-Bu, Children’s & 37 Military Hospitals!
Christmas is a day to remember and celebrate the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is also a day that many families have taken it upon themselves to gather around for merry making whiles others reflect on their lives during the past years.
However, not everyone gets the opportunity to be with their families on this special day to celebrate the man who died for the world. A cross section of the people who through no fault of theirs find themselves in unfortunate situations like being admitted at the hospital are unable to join in the merry making.
The above was the driving force for Confidence Haugen to arrange drinks and other Christmas items to donate to the children wards of four hospitals in Accra.
The owner of the biggest night club in Ghana and immediate past rep of Ghana to the Big Brother Africa house is running her foundation ‘Project Smile’ which will be launched soon. The sole aim of the foundation; she told GhanaCelebrities.Com is to bring smiles on the faces of the unfortunate in the society.
Assisted by her team and Santa Claus, Confidence yesterday December 24 celebrated the Christmas Eve with children who have been admitted in four of the hospitals in Accra.
The first hospital to welcome the ‘Project Smile’ team was the 37 Military Hospital, followed next was the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital. The team then proceeded to the children’s Hospital and climaxed the day at the Ridge Hospital.
Confidence fully clad in the ‘Project Smile’ t-shirt said, it wasn’t a donation as many people will perceive it. She prefers to call it “her Christmas celebration with them”. She said it is her way of celebrating Christmas with the children who had to be admitted because of bad health.
Most of the children were in bad shape that they had to result to smiling to show their appreciation. Their parents on the other thanked the ‘Project Smile’ team for putting smiles back on their faces in the festive season.
Like they say, there is blessing in giving than in accepting. It is always a great feeling that people who have enough to donate to less privileged in the society.
