For their unknown friends, children in England are preparing

Croatia Tomislav Materni told reporters Friday.
The convoy of trucks with gifts will leave England's southern town
of Eastbourn on December 3. After the arrival, the pesents will be
given to the children in Bosnia-Hercegovina and then in Croatia.
The gifts are adjusted to the age of the recipient and they are
different for boys and girls. The packages include toys, school
supply, candy, scarf, hats, gloves, and costume jewellery.
Children in England will also send their pictures and addresses in
order to keep contact with children in Croatia and Bosnia-
Herzegovina and to become pen-pals.
Last year, "Mustard seed relief missions" prepared 35,000 gifts,
and each December it sends Christmas gifts to Children in Croatia
and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
The drivers who are transporting and distributing gifts are not
professional drivers. They are inspectors, social workers,
telecommunications experts, journalists, who are participating in
the gathering of gifts and before Christmas they will drive for over
2,000 kilometres across Europe to deliver "Love in a box" to
children in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
