Carlitos
Our final count for the Carlitos Mission Project 2021: 21
That is 21 Carlitos for us to give out to kids facing battles AND 21 for Uncle Charlie! Thank you to all who gave to this project.
If you know of a child facing a tough situation, then please let us know and we will provide you with a Carlitos Be Brave Monkey to give to them, or we will send it for you. We simply ask that the parents are aware and willing to receive this gift from us.
Meet Carlitos
Carlitos is an extremely soft plush, furry monkey that stands 10” tall.
He is custom made and distributed by Uncle Charlie Ministries. Carlitos is made of PV furry material and filled with PP cotton on the inside. Completely safe for kids.
Many kids are fighting uphill battles. There are kids with special needs, cancer kids, kids with this serious or life-threatening illness, kids living in a children’s home or foster care, kids who are grieving over a loss of a loved one, etc. Carlitos is a tangible way to be a source of comfort and hope for these kids, or any kid for that matter.
Carlitos is more than just a cute, soft monkey for kids to hold. The Carlitos patch says Be Brave, which is based on Joshua 1:9 – “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
His tag and his character card both contain his website Carlitos.world. That’s a safe, fun site where kids can learn about God. They get all kinds of encouragement from Carlitos, from his creator Uncle Charlie, and his friends. They will see Carlitos quoting scriptures, Uncle Charlie’s music and teaching videos; they will get to download coloring pages, and much more.
Here is one of the videos as a sample…
The Purpose and Goal
Carlitos explains the mission project….
HFC Kids will be collecting money to purchase several of these Carlitos plush monkeys to give to children.
For $20, HFC Kids will be able to give Carlitos to a child and Uncle Charlie will also be able to provide a Carlitos to a child through his ministry. We will be reaching two children via two ministries with each $20 raised. We are already creating a list of children who we may be able to give Carlitos to encourage them. If you know of any children that we may be able to give Carlitos, then let us know. We will provide Carlitos as able and allow you to present Carlitos to that child should you wish to do so.
(This may become an ongoing mission project depending upon response)
