Our 2016 campaign helped SEVEN families and we delivered gifts, food and supplies for fifteen kids. We were able to help the families get at least one major wish-list item for each of their children, but we also brought each child a large pile of great gifts that we know they would love.
Thanks to the dedication of my mom and aunt - we washed, folded, sorted and distributed over 400 lbs of clothing - and every single child and adult we collected for got new winter gear - Hats, Gloves, Boots (if needed), Scarves and more.
We also delivered 4-6 rolls of wrapping paper, a pile of various sized gift bags, as well as tape, scissors, Christmas cards and more to each family so that they would be able to celebrate as normally as possible -without the fear of not having what they needed.
It was crucially important to us that no child felt left out or forgotten - we took great care to follow the gift-guides created for each family. The clothing they received was in their child's size or one size larger. We gave out shoes and boots in their current and next size up - and we made sure to choose gifts according to each child's interests. It was a huge success. We couldn't have done it without you.
