Mummy opens her gifts - Part 2

Here’s the second part of Cadeaux at the beach house in South Africa as Isabelle opens more wonderful gifts sent by incredibly kind viewers…
In 'Cadeaux at the Chateau', all of the inhabitants of the Chateau de Lalande gather together to open beautiful gifts that people have sent from all over the world. All of the monetisation from these videos will be donated to a different charity each month. KZread earnings fluctuate wildly each month, as ad revenue changes throughout the year.

October 2020:
Medecins sans Frontieres (chosen by my mother to support vaccinations in Africa) €942 (equivalent to 426 cholera vaccinations)
November & December 2020 & Jan & Feb 2021:
A Lalande Fashion Scholarship for a student at the Villioti Fashion Institute in South Africa R100,000 (approx €5,800)

January 2022:
We Are Here Venice €2,000
February 2022:
Red Cross for Ukraine €2019
I used to show the gifts as part of ' @The Chateau Diaries ' episodes, but you're all so very generous that we have many gifts, and if we spent the episodes opening them, we wouldn't be able to show you other aspects of chateau life! So, for those of you who enjoy watching presents being opened, and as a way to thank those of you who were kind enough to send them, I've made this new channel. Every week we will film your beautiful gifts whilst enjoying afternoon tea or aperitif together.
It is very important to me that you know that we in no way expect anyone to send us gifts. I would like to go further than that and add that, if doing so will put you in any financial difficulty whatsoever, please, please do not send us anything. Knowing that you join us by watching 'The Chateau Diaries' gives us all an enormous boost. But for those of you who have sent these incredibly thoughtful gifts, I hope that seeing us open them gives you a fraction of the joy that you've given us 💖💖💖
If you would like to see more of our life at the chateau, please go to our main 'Chateau Diaries' channel:

    @@carolinegoodier5908 if this lovely Indigenous woman from Canada wishes to make a pair of authentic moccasins for an 80 year old woman in South Africa, that is her business not yours. Move on. And how do you know if she does or doesn’t donate to other good causes…that’s right…you don’t because you don’t know anything about this generous woman. So, go away and crawl back in your Negative Nancy / Catty Cathy hole and realize that you can’t stop good-hearted people from giving freely - even when it doesn’t make sense to you. 😇
