Campaign Story
A must read: Start a Holiday Tradition….Help a Disabled Family this Christmas!
If you’re looking for a new tradition or just wanting to help someone this Holiday Season. We have someone that needs your help. What better way than to help someone in need. A small helping hand on your part along with many others can make a huge world of difference for a family in need.
We would like to help out a co-worker and a friend of ours, she is a single mother with 3 disabled children. We would like to help her make it through this Holiday Season with a helping hand and some kindness so they know they are not alone in their continuing struggles.
This family has endured tremendous heartaches and obstacles, with the passing of her oldest son a few years ago, another son is in a wheelchair, and her third son has epileptic seizures which leaves him with 24 hr nursing care, and her youngest son just battled through a rare cancer last year and is in physical therapy now. Just imagine all of this on a mother holding it all together alone.
Now, on top of all these struggles, a couple of months ago, a drunk driver drove his SUV thru their home, thankfully no one was injured. Now forced to live outside the comforts of their familiar surroundings this Holiday Season, with three disabled children to take care of, we can’t even imagine the burden on her plate. A Mother Juggling Work, Dr. Appts., Physical therapy, with help from no one. Her regular bills falling behind and nothing left for Christmas gifts. She always puts forth a smiling face for her children, so with your help this could possibly be a life changer for her and her children.
She is the strongest woman we know, she barely sleeps, thinks of herself last, puts her children first, in a lifestyle that some of us maybe would never be able to handle! We wish we could take the pain away
or just make it a little easier for them this Holiday Season with a miracle that would bring some relief from the stress. But the reality is we can’t do it alone, we can however try to get the word out and try to help her give her children a Very Special Christmas which they desperately deserve. And possibly, at the same time give her a little breathing room from the stress, and a chance to get caught up a little. So we are asking everyone, please help us help them!
We do understand things are tight for everyone, that’s why no donation is too small. Just five dollars, ten dollars, or twenty dollars, we are sure will not affect you in the same way that it will affect the family on the receiving end of your donation. We are positive that it will fill your heart with warmth of helping a family enjoy a little comfort for Christmas.
Thank you for anything you can do to help. Please help us make their dream of Christmas come true.

Thank you everyone!
Update posted by tikitara at 02:22 pmAs you can see we did not hit our target goal. But that by no means says we have failed. This is such a blessing to be able to present this single mother the amount that you all have found in your hearts to share. This is so much more. . . . .

May God bless this beautiful family during this hard time in their life. We know that God is working in their lives. It is so hard when you go through something but we want them to know that we will continue to pray and that they are not alone. We have been on the receiving end and it has blessed us beyond words, hoping this will bless them and it will encourage them
