Give the Gift of a Handmade Teddy

The children of persecuted Christians around world are so often deeply impacted by the persecution around them, but often forgotten. One of the ways VOM supports persecuted families is through the gift of teddies! 

Thanks to the skill and generosity of volunteer knitters throughout New Zealand, we have been able to hand deliver thousands of handmade knitted teddies to the children of persecuted families in restricted and hostile nations.  

But we need more help! 

If you are knitter yourself or know one, please consider joining this amazing cause and donating a knitted teddy or doll. Whether it’s one, ten, or fifty teddies, all donations are greatly appreciated and will make a child’s face light up with a smile. We found that even the older boys are delighted to receive them.

These gifts of teddies show these children that they are loved and cared for.
