The Lae Lions Club (LLC) shared the spirit of giving on Christmas Day by visiting various organisations with gifts.
The club members and their families visited the children’s ward, Haus Clare, St Mary’s Catholic Church and Angau Hospital.
They met and donated small gifts to the children at the children’s ward, the orphans at Haus Clare and the street kids associated with the church.
LLC is affiliated to Lions International organisation that usually do visits during Easter, Independence Day and on Christmas.
Club member Barbara Kalenda said it was rewarding to see the smile on everyone’s faces when they received their gifts.
She said it was also sad to see people who were sick and in the hospital as they couldn’t spend Christmas with their loved ones.
“It was so sad that when we arrived at the children's ward, a child just passed away and the mother was really drowned. May he rest in peace,” she said sadly.
The group also shared some cakes with everyone at the places they visited.
