Jambo and Happy Christmas

Over the last number of years you may have seen the Bóthar animated animals making their journey to help families in the developing world. The animals have completed their journey and this year they are delivering the Bóthar Christmas message from their new homes in Africa. The goat, once again, takes centre stage and even delivers his opening address in Swahili! 'Jambo' is the Swahili word for hello!

The goat and the other Bóthar animals are continuing to improve the quality of life of the families that they have been sent to. Ach tá go leor fós le déanamh as there are many families without animals to help them. Bóthar is urging you to continue sending Christmas gifts that make a difference. More cows, bees, camels, goats and pigs, so more families can make a better future for themselves.

Your copy of the Bóthar Christmas Gift Catalogue will be arriving in the coming weeks. The 20 page catalogue contains a host of Christmas gift ideas for you to choose from. You can visit bothar.org to complete your Christmas gift shopping online or you can call 1850 82 99 99 and place your gift order over the phone. Don't forget to send us a story in the new year about how well your special gift was received on Christmas morning.

From all of the Bóthar staff and the families that you have helped in the developing world we would like to wish you a very Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year.
