Adeniké Adewale's World Gift edit

Adeniké has always championed the transformative power of education, it's where she first found her voice. Her edit focuses on the foundational tools every girl needs to thrive. The Back to School kit and Precious Period Pads gift provides dignity and opportunity. The Promoting Peace gift reflects Adenike’s work in the Ministry of Justice, it is a gift that supports community-led initiatives to promote peace and improve relationships.

This edit embodies Adenike’s passion for girls’ empowerment, education and the
community, a trio of causes close to her heart.

“I’m so excited to be supporting CAFOD’s World Gifts this year with my own personalised edit. I've chosen to support World Gifts because giving should be thoughtful and the gifts in my personalised edit don’t just offer help — they empower. Every person deserves the chance to learn, dream, and shape their future. When you know where your support is going, it becomes more than charity. It becomes change."

Christine Allen's World Gift edit

Christine has been choosing World Gifts for years, thoughtful presents that bring joy to her loved ones and make a real difference. This year, she’s created her own World Gifts edit: a collection of gifts she’s excited to give this Christmas. For Christine, these special gifts are a fun and practical way to celebrate the season with meaning, sharing love while remembering our global family.

The Teach someone to read gift speaks to Christine’s passion for education as a gateway to opportunity. Water for a family ensures a basic human right, helping families stay healthy and thrive. Safe place to call home echoes her deep concern for displaced communities seeking security and peace.

“These gifts are meaningful in every sense; they’re thoughtful presents I’m truly excited to give to my family. I love that World Gifts let us celebrate Christmas in a joyful, generous way, while also connecting with something bigger. It’s a chance to show love to those close to me and stand in solidarity with others around the world.”
