OUR STORY
At the Nickel Christmas Market, you're not just shopping for unique gifts and festive treats; you're investing in hope and empowerment. We're proudly presented by Kungwini Welfare Organisation, the heart behind Paul Jungnickel Home and Medical Care Facility, Kungwini Early Childhood Development Centre, and the Unjani Clinic rendering services for disabled adults and the Pretoria-East community.
Kungwini Welfare Organisation provides essential care and opportunities for 160 disabled adults, offering them a true home and a chance to thrive. Government subsidies don't cover all our operational costs, which is where the Nickel Christmas Market steps in. We created this annual event in 2000 to bridge the gap and ensure the continued well-being of our residents.
We showcase the incredible talents of our disabled residents, offering their handcrafted creations alongside the products of local entrepreneurs. Every purchase directly supports their skills and independence. Every rand raised contributes to the medical care, residency needs, and daily necessities of our 160 family members. Your support provides them with a safe, loving, and supportive environment.
We invite you to experience the true spirit of Christmas – a spirit of giving, connection, and making a tangible difference. Imagine while you enjoy the festive atmosphere and find the perfect gift, you're directly impacting the lives of 160 individuals who rely on our care. Your purchase means more than a present; it means a brighter future.
Join us at the Nickel Christmas Market, hosted at Kungwini Welfare Organisation, Graham Road, Pretoria-East, and be a part of something truly meaningful. Experience the heart and hustle, and help us build a community where everyone belongs.
