Christmas is coming and I have 3 kids.

I have no money and my bills seem to keep getting bigger and bigger. I want to be able to give them a good Christmas. I have never had trouble before until recently. I am in college and cannot wait til I finish so I never have money problems. Thank you and God bless anyone who reads this. Even if you cannot help thank you anyway. You can reach me at (email removed). My email address. Thank you again. Tonya

Tonya, I wish you the best. You are wise to know education is one of the greatest ways to a good financial future. In the meantime, until you get there, many churches and radio stations in all areas help families such as yours in times of need, and years down the road you can help someone else such as yourself in the same type of situation.

Here are some online donation sites you can try.
I can’t promise a miracle out of them, but it’s
worth a try.
http://www.modestneeds.org
http://www.cyberbeg.com
http://digitalcharity.com
http://my-donation.com

Just post your story on those sites and see if someone will donate to you.

Check with your local Community Action or apply for a Christmas basket with local churches. We have a program here called Horn of Plenty and they supply the kids with toys and a food basket for the holidays. You need to talk to your kids and explain that right now that money is tight and you will not be able to afford allot of presents for Christmas so they will only be getting a couple of small presents. When you can afford it they will be able to get one present that they really want. Remember that it doesn’t matter how many presents they get to open. Whats important is that your there and care and love them no matter what and isn’t that what really matters. Hope this helps :-)

Many different places help with Christmas Presents. If you go to your city, they should be able to help you find help, however it is a little early. I would also tell you to go to your church, if you attend. Another place you could go is the local schools. Many of them will take your information. Hope this helps.
