This is awesome.
Helping out people who need help is a way to make the world a better place.

• I would suggest to give this family money in form of Bitcoin or another Crypto in which you have faith for the future.
  in 2017 we saw, how fast the value of your money can increase.
  If the trend will going on like this in 2018, this family will be able to grow a little asset for the future.. Cause in poverty they probably will not have the chance to safe money for the future.. It will not help now, but maybe much for the future of the young kids.

• Another opportunity would be some books which help in life.
  Choose a book which helps them to grow in personality and financial.

• Spend a family trip for them.
  Would be awesome for the spirit of the family and of course huge fun for the kids.

• Ask which home appliance they need..
  Maybe you can facilitate the situation at home with a new washer, television, computer etc..

Hope you find something interesting in these suggestions.
Happy new year for you!
