invite you to join
The International Christmas Charity Bazaar
Altogether the International Christmas Charity Bazaar (ICCB) has raised 2 million Litas on behalf of Lithuanian organizations serving children, women and the elderly in particular need. Each year embassies, international schools, prominent Lithuanians and hundreds of volunteers join IWAV members in the organisation of an event called the unofficial start of the Christmas season.
Hundreds of contributors help the organisers prepare hand-made crafts, souvenirs and Christmas treats for the Bazaar. These gifts are offered in exchange for a donation to the beneficiaries, who are carefully vetted and selected by the organising committee. Visitors to the event can participate in a lottery to win exciting prizes donated by sponsors, listen to Christmas music in a live concert and enjoy special activities for children as they search for unusual and traditional gifts from around the world.
All of the money collected at the Christmas Bazaar and related activities is donated to the beneficiaries.
Help us make a difference in the lives of those without the voices or means to help themselves.
