Mini-Profile

Hi, my name is Michael Lewis and my family has fell on hard times ,I have 5 children that I am unable to provide Christmas gifts for and am looking for any help possible to provide them with at least a modest Christmas. My children range in age from 8-16 / 8 yr. old girl,9 yr. old boy, 10 yr. old girl ,15 yr. old girl,and 16 yr. old girl.
I work 2 jobs but after taxes child support and debt, make only $480.00 a month . perhaps through a serious of mistakes I allowed myself to be put in this predicament, and I am now working to get out of it and soon will ,but not in time for Christmas and my children deserve much better, they never ask for anything and have handled our new poverty well and still have the giving spirit ,my oldest 2 girls both work and provide themselves as well as there younger siblings with clothes and nessecities that I can’t always provide and they both volunteer time to charities in our area.
iT WOULD REALLY BE NICE TO BE ABLE TO Surprise them with gifts this Christmas ,I think it would just reasure them of the nature of giving and the kindness of others as well as Gods mercy .
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide
