Our 2018 campaign expanded so much- that we started in October 2018! We were ambitious - and it paid off. Not only did we have our most successful GoFundMe in all four years, but we also managed to have more and more donors dropping donations off, so we had more time to pack and delivery the donations for the families.
We ended up bringing in so many donations that we took up one 10x15 indoor unit and TWO 15'x25' units that were COMPLETELY full by the time pickups and deliveries started. We managed to take care of fourteen families entirely, but we also were able to assist more than 30 families who were on our standby list. We opened our storage units in the two days leading up to Christmas, and handed out boxes of clothing we'd packed for more than fifty families - while allowing many of the standby families to collect donations for their kids to have a good Christmas as well.
We also delivered over 80 rolls of wrapping paper, four full sized Christmas trees and two small ones, six frozen turkeys, and three HUGE storage units filled with clothing and gifts!
Days after Christmas, we delivered maternity clothing and baby supplies to three families who were expecting babies in the months after Christmas.
