Are you familiar with the lyrics from The Sound of Music that go, “…brown paper packages tied up with string—these are a few of my favorite things”? It’s a delightful, happy tune!
I love the idea behind it—finding joy in the simple, often overlooked things that quietly enrich our lives.
As stores start rolling out Christmas decorations, we at Interaction International are also preparing for the end of the year. We invite you to join us in finding joy in the small but essential things that allow us to support the MKs you care so much about.
While it’s easy to get excited about the more visible aspects of our work—like TCK camps, the MK Mental Health Initiative, and global training sessions—the truth is, it’s the unglamorous, behind-the-scenes essentials that make it all possible.
My “Favorite Things” Wish List for Interaction:
- Zoom subscription to connect with isolated MKs
- The annual audit that keeps us transparent and accountable
- Website maintenance and support that helps MKs and their parents find us online
- Secure online payment processors for global donations and payments
- Meeting payroll so our dedicated team can continue their critical work
Not flashy. Not glamorous. But absolutely vital.
These are the simple, often unseen, needs that allow us to impact thousands of MKs each year. Without generous, undesignated year-end gifts, we won’t be able to keep these crucial operations running—and that could mean fewer MKs receiving the support they desperately need.
We Need You
Will you see beauty in these humble needs? Your special gift today will ensure that we can keep going strong, that no MK slips through the cracks, and that every MK knows they are not alone in their journey.
I wish I could give you a small piece of knotted string—just a simple reminder that the small things often make the biggest difference. Because an MK who feels isolated or is silently struggling through a tough transition needs your gift, no matter the size, to bring them hope and support.
Our goal is to raise $18,000 by December 31st. Will you make a difference in the life of an MK or other TCK by giving? Will you ensure that the behind the scenes essentials are covered? Click the GIVE button above and make a difference. Will you put us on your Christmas list?
Thank you for prayerfully considering how you will help. Your generosity is a lifeline for MKs around the world. Together, we can continue this important ministry. I’m so grateful to have you on our team.
I hope your Christmas is filled with your favorite things.
