  • To the ones who have made a wonderful Christmas for my family:

    I'm 28 yrs. old and a year ago I had a wonderful job making over $26 an hour work for a production plant. I lost my job when I got sick due to being pregnant with my son. I never though that I would be in a situation where I needed help. But I am. And it means so much to me that I was able to find help. Without your donation it would have been almost impossible for my children to have a Christmas. I want to Thank You!!
