The BSN IV-F nursing students at UC organized a pre-Christmas party for the children at the SOS Village, decorating the area and preparing gifts for the children. Games like an egg rolling contest and pin the star on the tree were played. The students presented carols and snacks were served. Each child received gifts before group pictures were taken, allowing the students to feel they brought joy to the children during the holidays.
