Campaign “Give smiles, donate a toy from the heart”.
Let’s help bring the joy of Christmas to thousands of vulnerable children in Carazo.
Managua, Nicaragua – This Christmas season, Good Neighbors invites the community and companies to join the “Give Smiles, donate a toy from the heart” campaign. This year, in its second edition, the campaign’s goal is to collect 10,000 toys, new or in good condition, to be distributed to children in vulnerable communities in Carazo.
Each donation will help bring smiles and hope to children during this special season. Toys will be received that are new, used in excellent condition and non-warlike, ensuring that all gifts contribute to an environment of peace and well-being for the little ones.
How to participate?
Good Neighbors invites individuals and companies to make their donations at any of the collection points:
- Managua: From where the Seminole Hotel used to be, 3 c north and 1/2 c down, Casa 33.
- Diriamba: Carazo Judicial Complex, 350 mts east.
- Jinotepe: In front of San José School.
- Santa Teresa: Street in front of Autolavado Hermanos Prado, 1 block east.
Companies can contribute with direct donations of toys or carry out internal campaigns to motivate their employees to participate. In addition, they can share this initiative on their social networks, joining the commitment to make a difference in the community.
Every toy counts! “We invite everyone to join this mission of love and generosity. With your help, we can reach more children and make this Christmas special for them,” commented Miguel Martinez, Communications Analyst for Good Neighbors International in Nicaragua.

Since August 2024, in parallel with the medical checkups, Good Neighbors International has developed a series of talks on personal hygiene and sanitation for 2,063 children and adolescents (NNA) in the communities served by CDP Santa Teresa. These activities, aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 6, seek to strengthen families’ knowledge and healthy habits to ensure sustainable water and sanitation management.
The process was led by community volunteers and social work interns from the Centro Universitario Regional (CUR) Carazo, who gave practical talks on hand washing and tooth brushing. Each participant received an educational brochure and a bar of soap to promote hygiene in their homes.
