2012 Inspired Gifts In Action (1 January- 31 December)
Together, we were able to give a staggering number of life-changing and life-saving gifts, including over 6 million therapeutic food sachets, as much as 27 million vaccines doses, almost 240,000 mosquito nets and enough water purification tablets to procure over 35 million litres of drinking water! These truly are Inspired Gifts. Take a look at which gifts went where:
