Fatima's desire

I just want a real present

"What a sad situation. Every child in the world should receive a Christmas present. Each child deserves a moment of great happiness and faith in a miracle, " wrote one user.
Fatima is ashamed of the fact that her parents work in a landfill and live below the poverty line. Classmates tease a girl when she puts on things found in garbage cans. The truth is that this is indeed a very difficult situation, and the girl’s life is completely surrounded by garbage.
Fatima goes to school because she wants to learn how to read and write. She wants to write a letter to Santa Claus asking for a real gift, not from the trash. The girl would like to ask a good wizard to bring her a mobile phone, a doll and a small bike for her younger sister.
“I want to get a present at least once, which before that would not have been in the landfill, ” admitted a little girl from El Salvador. Nevertheless, even in such difficult conditions, the baby seeks to show her life from the best side.
