Cara-Lena, a pupil at St John’s Primary School, decided to help after learning about the Night Before Christmas Campaign.
After hearing that some children in Ayrshire might wake up on Christmas morning without a present.
She asked her family if she could use her own money to buy gifts. So far, she has bought books, toys and gifts for babies. Her family has now set up a fundraising page and an Amazon wish list so others can help her give presents to more children this Christmas.
Her older sister, Jessica Campbell, said the family was proud of Cara-Lena for thinking of other children and choosing to spend her own money on them. She said it was typical of her little sister, who often asks for spare change to put in a collection bucket whenever she sees one.
Anyone who would like to support Cara-Lena can donate through her Night Before Christmas Campaign fundraising page or buy a gift from her Amazon wish list.
