Does anyone know where I can go to get my children on the list for toys for tots? I am not asking for a handout from anyone on this board just looking for advice on where to go. I have 3 children ages 9, 4, and 8 months. My husband and I have just about hit rock bottom this year and could use some help getting christmas gifts for atleast my 2 older children. Thanks for any help. Happy Holidays
I would start here: http://www.toysfortots.org/contact_us/default.asp I hope the New Year brings much joy and success for you and your family!
You can also check here as I hear this was a good program last year and there has been little information provided this year. You can PM Jennifer S if you do not want to post on the forum. http://4042.appcomm.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=177317#177317
Clark Family, It took a lot for you to post. Having been exactly there, I know how difficult it must have been. Please understand...a handout is what you get from the government... A HAND UP is what you get from a friend. I have emailed you. If you do not receive it, PM me so I can retransmit the mssg. Keep your chin up and your faith in humanity. We often find the very best in ourselves when things look their worst. You have freinds here. We 're just friends that have not met yet. Warmest wishes... H6/C6
Clarks, I, too, have seen hard times for my family at Christmas time and understand how difficult that can be. My prayers and best wishes are with you. I echo what Hatteras said about keeping the faith. God bless, Snuff
Pm me a wish list please for your children. (or post here if you are comfortable!) Please let me know if they are boys or girls too. I would love to help out and make your kids smile this year.
Also, I know you dont know me... but I am a SAHM and would be willing to watch your kids free of charge if that would help you be able to get a part time job during the school day. I know there has to be some seasonal work out there. I have a 23 month old son. (and school age children). (and could give you references.) PM me if you are interested and we can work something out.
LJK, I hope one day I get a chance to meet you. From your posts, you are blessed with a heart of gold, and kindness that I don't see much in today's world. God will Bless you for your love and kindness, and I just wanted to say "thank you" for your kindness and love you have shown to others in need.
Lk and spunky... ....darn it....this is two nights in a row where this topic has made me cry....if I keep this up, the Army will want my Ranger tab back..LOL...yeah I'm a billy badazz when it comes to defending my nation..However, when it's about kids having it difficult, this strikes a different chord with me. Several friends also want to help out. PM us Clarks...we want to help you celebrate the holidays, which permits us to celebrate the holidays.
