Where can we get help for Christmas holidays

Hello we are a family of five and we are in need of some help for the holidays. This year has been very difficult for us me and my husband both lost our jobs and being struggling to provide for our children. I have been looking for work and finally found a job but was taking off of due medical issues. I have type 2 diabetes and its even been hard to fill my prescriptions.My husband has been going to temp services to help us make it through the difficult times but it only getting us by not even enough to pay all of our mortage and other bills. Christmas looks almost impossible for us at this time and it sad to tell your children that santa will not be visiting this year.I’ve tried to get help from our county agency but they couldn’t provide for us at this time. We have not always had the best christmas for our children but at least we were able to have a nice christmas dinner and gifts under the tree. This year if having a christmas tree looks hard due to us being behind on bills. Please help us to have some type of holiday for our three children because they truely dont understand what is going on right now. Very concerned, Family

see if any of your local churches or clubs american legion or elks or mooses are have angel trees (they place info about the child on a ornament on a tree at department stores and cutomers that are able to select an ornament and pick up gifts for said child on ornament and leave gifts at customer service desk that then gives to organization to wrap and deliver to the families in time for christmas )even see about contacting the salvation army i did an internship there and we would do project bundle up and thanks giving and christmas baskets with dinner fixings there should be something like this in your area

you could always go to a local church.there are two times that we have had to rely on help for christmas and we got clothing and toys for our children once from a weslean church and once from a local baptist church.then of course there is the salvation army and outreach centers.

Thank you so much for the information .Question do you have to belong to the church and do you just call them or go to see them

I got some helpful information from someone I like to share with you. Try local churches and maybe even salvation army. If you can find someone offering angel trees you can add your children name and someone picks their name and gets them gifts.

I am needing help this year for Christmas also and what i have found is that Salvation Army helps with Toys for Tots, you can sign up there, also look in your yellow pages and call all the churches in there, most of the churches are looking for families for the congregation to buy for, i have received alot of help already from some WONDERFUL churches in my city. Also, if you have a public aid office if you call there they can give you alot of numbers to call for agencies that help out just withing your county….I hope this helps…….Have a very Merry Christmas

Take the advice from above. The churches, SCHOOLS, Community centers, local stores with angel trees. These are all good starts for a Merry Christmas for your kids. Swallow your pride, and call on these places for help, THEY WILL HELP. Asking for help is a hard thing to do, but telling your kids there is no santa is even harder.
I also have a stuggling family of 7. I am a full-time student and husband is the only one in the house to pull in an income. I will be asking for help from these places also. JUST remember the recalls on the toys that others purchase for our kids.
I will be thinking of you all in need of help, Because I wish I could. Have a Merry Christmas everyone. Keep it Merry, remember…. even if we have no gifts or very little……We have the greatest gifts of all……..OUR FAMILY! Lots of love, Crystal

i have tried all of my local churches, plus the salvation army, plus all the outreach centers in my area, they are just not willing to help me with my 16 month old son, for the salvation army i do not meet the requirements, in order to get anything from the church i have to go thru the outreach center, and the outreach center will not help because my son is not in preschool. its going to be a very hard christmas this year as we had to recently move and we have so many bills that need to be paid :( it would have brightened my day on christmas morning when i got the look of pure joy on my sons face knowin that all the presents under the tree would be for him, but i cant even afford a 25 cent pack of gum, if someone knows any other places, please let me know :(

I too am looking for help here in Illinois I have tryed to get help with the angle tree churches and other places to help get things for me two daughters a 5 year old and a 9 year old. I was to late for the angle tree and I can not get help from any of the churches. We did not even have the money or the food for the Thanksgiving this year. I have not worked for two years and fighting to get on Dissability but will have to wait for 22 months to get in front of one of their Judges. So I will not have help this year. My wife is on Dissability but they put someone over her money she can not even get any of it to help out just pay the rent and Bills. Alot of people need help when it comes to the holidays and the only thing I can say is keep trying and hope that God sends you some help.

Hello, My son and I will not have a Christmas this year. I’m still playing catch up on the bills. I just found out a few months ago that my husband was on crack cocaine. I’m in the process of moving and the new house that me and my son will be moving into does not have a stove or a refigerator. I have to find both of them first. I dont have the money to send my son to a daycare. So, I have decided to try to work from home. I’ve been going to the libray on popular. I found a job a real job that I can work from home. I have got to try to save some money fro a computer. I have been going to walmart, kmart, target, and best buy to price a computer. They are very expensive to me. Seeing that I cant hardly afford to put diapaer on my son. If there is anyone out there that has a heart for a family in need please contact me by phone 901-251-9439 or email me at (email removed).

I just got married March 27th of this year. As soon as I said I do that’s when my husband began to start stealing from me and my son. Taking all of the bill money. I dont want to get on welfare. That’s why I need some help with purchasing a computer. So, I will be able to take care of my son. I had to put my husband out of my home because it got to they point that he wanted to put his hands on me. The only thing I could think about is my son seeing me getting abused. It was not a hard decision to make for me. Because I love my son more than I love my husband. I know most women in my situtation this would be a hard decision to make. When I heard my son yelling and scareming for me that was enough for me.

I just want the opportunity to start a fresh start for me and my son. My son is only 16 months old. So, I have a long way to go. I believe that I have a preacher on my hands. If so I want to be able to provide the best for him.

Thank you,
Veda

Hi, I was just surfing the internet and read your story. I am sorry that you are having a difficult time. I wish there was a miracle that could take place for you at this moment.
I know this may be strange, but I have an opportunity of a lifetime that you will never have to go back to this sad place your in.
This is no sales call, or investment etc…just sharing a chance to turn your life around. There isn’t any answer today, but what about next year at Christmas? Do you really want to be in the same place?
If you are open to talking to me, please email. or, if now doesn’t feel right, keep this email for a day you are ready.
I am a mother of two young boys under three and they are my little treasures and I know how hard this may be for you right now. We aren’t well off right now either and we are just lucky that they are at the age where they don’t understand.
If I don’t hear from you, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. I think that creating a Christmas that is traditional would be the answer. Making cards and doing a gift exchange of why you love one another. Perhaps, make it in to a surprise in the cards etc…just get creative and tell them that Christmas is more about traditional giving. this could be your best Christmas ever.
I hope you aren’t offended by me wanting to share this opportunity, I just know how it has changed my life and others. All the best to you, god bless all of you.

Thank you very much Nicoledonaldson I really appreciate your kind words. That really made me feel good. I have been just having a very hard time lately. But, like you said things will get better. I just have to keep my head up and keep god first. I can’t go wrong. It’s just that it seem the harder that I try to do the right thing thats when another optical comes my way. But, I know that I’m a very strong individual and I can’t give up I have a little man to rise. He depends on my every move and make that I make. When ever you want you can give me a call 901-251-9439. I live in Memphis, TN how is the weather were you are? I know that is very very cold here it was 37 degress last night I thought that it was going to snow.

Thanks,
Veda
Keep me and my little one in prayers
God Bless you and yours as well

My heart goes out to all who have posted on here. I too am at a loss of how to tell my children that Santa will not be visiting our house this year. I have 5 children, my 3 teenagers understand but I have 4 year old twin daughters that do not. My heart breaks everytime they ask if it’s time for Santa to come soon because I know I can not afford to even put one single toy or article of clothing under the tree for them this year. often I just want to cry because they look at me with bright, hopeful eyes and ask when Santa is coming. I have tried to explain that Santa might not be able to come to our house this year, but they do not understand. I will keep all of you in my prayers, it is a hard year for many. God bless.

Hi Keeleyna,

How are you, you must be so busy and you are so organized to be thinking ahead for Christmas!

well, I can help by showing you a way you can help yourself. I work from home part-time for a Inc 500 company, and this company has changed lives of many in situations like yourself. This is a true,”real” way to earn an income from home , there is no catches and information is free. If you are at all interested to hear more , we can do this on the computer, you can have a listen and see for yourself if this is an option for you. Many in your home area are working this business. It will give you the flexibility you need and an income you can decide on.

Let me know your thoughts, this would be a great time to start for this Christmas.

Cheers, Nicole from Canada

Unfortunately there is a great need this holiday season.

If you live in Northern California, Austin, TX, Portland, OR, Seattle, WA we can help you. We are the Family Giving Tree and we help families in those four locations ONLY.

If you are NOT in those locations I suggest churches, Salvation Army or the Marine’s Toys for Tots program. Please do not contact me if you do not live in those four locations as I cannot help families that don’t live in those locations.

Best of luck to each and every one of you!

My name is Tara I have 5 chidlren, which includes a set of twins and a disabled child. I understand the need for xmas all to well. Its hard to get help, unless you go to toys for tots or what ever.Dont be proud, accept all help. I prepare for x mas way before x mas. 3 months before start gathering things that come on sale for what ever price. I find things all the time for $1.00 managers specials and such. You dont have to buy a ton of preseants. get a box and add to it each time you see something. collect non parishale foods like can food and dry boxed foods.save change, collect cans, you can do it. a dollar here and a dollar there you will have a holiday meal in no time ready.trust me, its a matter of dicipline and planning. YOU CAN DO IT.

I am looking for a family in need this holiday. I am not looking to scam i wish to honestly help. I am in the phone book, so you can see i am a real person, and i would even give my messenger or phone number. all i am asking is a story of the issue, why you are in need, how many children and age. and some sort of proof of the children and the problem. you can black out any important info such as ss#’s and such. send me also 3 special request from the children, or if to young what is really needed for child. I cannot do a large amount of help, but willing to help a family as much as i can. preferaly someone close to my state of ohio as shipping would be cheaper. disabled children,military families, and special needs adults given priority for my assistance. im not sure how to have anyone contact me, i see some get their emails removed i> small>(email removed) /small> /i> contact me asap so i can plan for this.

I need help this christmas so much. My name is Mandy. I have 6 kids and an out of work fiance due to the off season of his field (HVAC/R). Our 2 oldest children (13 + 10) have mental disabilities, (ADD + Bi-polar). Our youngest (18 months) has just gone through reconstructive surgery of his airway due to prematurity (born 3 months early 1lb 5oz). We have guardianship of an 18 year old who came from a mother addicted to drugs and a dad who was more worried about himself than his family. She has been in our family since she was 15 with 2 high school credits and is due to graduate this year. Our 5 year old has just started kindergarden this year and has done so well. He has received an award for his behavior, work ethic, and grades in his 1st year of school.

These kids deserve to get more on the xmas holidays than we can provide for them at this time. We are barely able to keep gas in our 1 family vehicle to get everyone where they need to be. We don’t plan to be in this situation forever, but right now we could use some serious help to give our children the type of xmas that can be remembered when they are older. We are not asking to have them showered with gifts, but would like to be able to see them smile on xmas day rather than wonder why santa didn’t show up at their house this year.

If there is anyone out there that can provide any kind of help we can be contacted by email at i> small>(email removed) /small> /i> or i> small>(email removed) /small> /i>.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to someone elses issues and hope that there is help out there!!!!!

I have 4 children that I need help for christmas. My husband is disabled and can’t work. My kids are 17 boy ,15 girl,13 girl,11 boy. I know that they are older kids but that shouldn’t be a reason that they won’t have christmas. I’m not asking for much just something to open christmas morning. I would be greatful for any help.

Well Christmas time is coming around again soon!! I too need help. I am a military wife that just got relocated to El Paso Texas with my 2 boys. My husband is set to be deployed right after Christmas! I really don’t know what we are to do here! We can not afford anything this year as every penny went into moving into this place. We usually have to go to the local food bank every month for help with food. I can not get a job here because I do not know spanish! My children are 3 and 8 and I would really like to have a special holiday since thier daddy will be gone the whole next year! Can anyone help me?

Thank you and God bless!

I recently had a sergery because of my spinal cord causing intense pain in my neck and arms. This cause me to have to quit my job. My wife got over whelmed with the stress and left me here with our two kids for a man she barely knew. My kids are Karissa(17) and Trevor(12) They have been so strong trying to cope with a mom who is no longer here. Right in time for the holidays she abandons not only her husband but her two children who loved her dearly. Obviously i don’t have much money for christmas because I am supporting me and my two kids all by myself without having a job.
If someone could help make their christmas’s a little brighter it would deffinetly be a miracle and i would be extremely thankful. Please somebody grant not only my wish, but their’s too.
sincerely,
a heart broken parent

Cheers. My name is Christina. I just recently got married to fantastic man who is less than a week from losing his job due to this horrid economy. We, too, are at the cusp of foreclosure and with winter just about here in Michigan, the gas bills will be HUGE again. *bleh*

Anyway, a great way to receive items to wrap for under the tree is to check out this website:

http://www.freecycle.org

They have a freecycle in most every state and city. The best part about this site is that they do not allow people to ask for payment for these items. These are all items that are no longer wanted by others. The only thing it costs you is the money you pay for the gas to pick them up. :)

Freecycle also has a way to post things you no longer want as well — it helps others in case your ‘junk’ is something they might collect…or treasure. :)

Best of luck,
Christina

Where can I go to get help for christmas, with the economy bad and with me getting custody of my two brothers and they both have problems from the abuse of our father, our mother died of cancer and she was our life.. But my one younger brother was born with a very bad heart defect, and in April of this year he was air lifted to Cardial Glennon in ****.Louis and had to have a pace maker put in, his heart is getting more problems added to it, and just recietly that his upper shabber is beating to fast and now we have to call his monitoring on a machine, and i have gotten behind on some bills, we almost lost him. I take care of a lady also and it is my job. I don’t make that much, but i can’t get food stamps or me a medical card to help us out cause they say i make to much and i don’t. But we are hurting around this time of the year. So if you can tell me where to sign up for the Angel tree in Montgomery county in Hillsboro ILL. Or who can help. Thank You

You can contact online angels for help. you just get the email address from thier site and tell them your situation. Your name and address and the names and sizes of your children also stuff they like then if they can help you they email you and let you know and then they send you an email with the tracking number of your package and they ship it right to your door. They were wonderful for me and my family last year.

Dear Santa and All the Elf’s,
or who it may Concern For Christmas Help.

I guess I don’t know where to start so here it is:

~Hi my name is Rebecca, I am writing this letter in hope for help for my family, this Christmas Season.
I am so beside myself to ask for anything but I don’t know what nor where nor who to turn too. We have SIX growing life’s in our house. I am age 26, my husband Jim is 31, Uncle Paul 36 is my Brother-in law that is blind, mentally and physical handicapped due to an accident at the age of 12, Spencer is 8 and the Twins are two months shy of 4.The only thing all 3 boys asked for was a BIG SLIDE and SWING like the play ground has.
The last year has been so hard for my family. I Lost my job in August Due to layoffs. Jim stays at home to help Paul and watch over the Kids.We are such a BIG Family we travel in a suburban God took my Dad, this year at age 53, when his kidneys failed him. (this was, is and always will be hard for me) When Dad left I knew He was scared, I knew, he was right with God and Himself, and I know know we’ll meet again. I reassured he was the Best Dad he could be to me and Paw-Paw to my Boys.
The only kind of Family I have left at all in this Big Scary world is my Dads, Mom, ~Grandma-Shirley~ Loving, stability that was there no matter what time of the Day it was.
Well, God took~Grandma-Shirley’s~ to meet my Dad.While sitting here thinking about Christmas and NO one but me and the family I’ve made is left. Its so lonely with out them.
Again, God took My Husband Mom, this past November to join my Dad and ~Grandma-Shirley~ in heaven. Jim and I have both lost all our life-lines in a matter of months.
The day after my Mother In-law pasted. I was put in the hospital for over a week due to some Major lower intestinal infection. We have never been so alone we have no one to even send a Christmas card to.We don’t much money at all this year with having to Pay for every ones last wishes. We don’t have money for Christmas and this makes me very sad. I have Never felt so Disappointed. I know we can use any kinda help that we can get My boys have seen so many tears this year, a smile on my 3 boys faces, Would be the best Christmas Gift I could ever ask for. Santa Please help bring my Baby’s a BIG SLIDE and SWING like the play ground has. I would be so grateful for help to make these guys Christmas wish come ~true~.

To whom it may concern,

My name is Tammy, I am a wife and Mommy of four beautiful children, Rebecca 11, Alexis 7, Steven 5 and Nicholas 2.
We have had the hardest year. Struggling every day. My daughter was diagnoised with Epilepsy and my youngest son who was born with Down syndrome and still can not eat and has had surgery to try to correct this problem, The surgery was really hard for him, But thank God he is slowly improving. My husband has lost all overtime at work. Now his pay of $300.00 a week is not cutting it at all for our family of 6. We have just lost our house and have no idea where will we be for Christmas. Our van is on its last miles. Were really in a bind in every way.
The odvious is we have not a dime to our name and Christmas is around the corner.
We have tried many different thing to try to raise some money for the kids christmas, including trying to sell some of our household items, with no sucess.
I have also tried sweepstakes and giveaways.
So a friend gave me the idea to write a letter and mail it out in hopes that someone is looking to help a family this hoilday.
It breaks my heart at the thought of having to tell them the truth about Santa at such young ages. Their really good kids who have been though a lot in their short lives.
They have had a lot taken from them, to have to take Christmas from them too will just kill me and their father. We know that they will not get what they have asked for on their Christmas list, But to be able to go to the store and get them some things would be awesome.
Any help would be greatly apperciated.
Thankyou for taking the time to read my letter. Happy Hoildays and God Bless.
If you would like to help our family this season please e-mail me at i> small>(email removed) /small> /i>.

Hello, my name is Judy,I have been struggling for quite some time, but have so far, been able to somehow stay afloat but barely, However this year is just not working out, this year happens to be the worst yet. I have two young girls ages 6 & 4 and I feel like I’ve let them down. They recently had birthdays in which we could not celebrate, our electricity was shut off that same month and we had to spend a week with relatives, My car was also re-possessed, and the scariest of all we almost where evicted last month(Thank god they we’re willing to accept payments). Now as Christmas comes upon us I fear we will not be able to do what we sooo want to do for our girls. The sad part is they are so understanding and kind I almost think I care more then they do!
I try not to discuss the reason we are so bad off as to not point fingers of blame so I’ll make it brief, My Fiance (the girls father) is a recovering addict whom is is trying so hard to make up for all of the damage caused, but every time we start to catch up it seems more bills or issues occur, no one will give us assistance because he makes just over the income bracket and I recently had to quit my job for lack of child care. I absolutely dislike asking for help, but I’m desperate, not for myself but for my girls they do not deserve this!! Please if anyone can Help in any small way it would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to e-mail me even if you only have suggestions it’s my last hope!!! Thank You,

In age wise he is and always will be between 10 and 12 years of age. We also so have one Grandson who is 9 and has ADHD but nowthat he’s on Concerta is an Honor student. My husband has been out of work for two years do to much needed back surgery, but as he had no insurance, no surgery. He did start receiving Medicaid last year, but the surgeon said it was to late and to dangerous. He now is awaiting for permanent disability. My son and I receive SSI due to our disabilites. That is a total income of $1336.00 a month, after all bills and food is paid for we have nothing left. Last year we were able to save some money for Christmas but not so this year. If there is anyone out there that can help I’d truely would appreciate it with all my heart. Sincerely Roseanna i> small>(email removed) /small> /i>
