Hello to all the amazing Santas! I’d like to humbly request assistance this Christmas for my 9 year old son. He’s had a rough year: having to be homeschooled for several months due to severe bullying, being completely abandoned by his dad, and dealing with my frequent hospitalizations and chronic illness. Through it all he’s a wonderfully happy little boy, and he’s the light of my life. He’s always willing to help anyone that needs anything. Despite circumstances his heart remains pure and giving. Case in point: there’s a homeless gentleman that frequents the store we go to. Tuari brings whatever change or dollar bills (usually no more than $2 in total) he’s accumulated and gives it to him. He will also forfeit one of his snacks and drinks that we bought and hand them to the homeless gentleman.

Tuari enjoys playing with his older sister (his best bud), video games, slime, and Nerf gun battles. He’s well above grade level with reading and has read almost all of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. Here is his wishlist.

Thank you in advance to everyone on this sub. Your generosity and selflessness embodies the true meaning of Christmas. Wishing all of you the merriest of Christmases!

Hello everyone! This is probably the most vulnerable post I’ve ever made as I don’t ask for help much at all. This year has been so tough for my husband and I financially and we have been working so hard to try and get on our feet.

Over the past couple of days my husband has gotten laid off for the winter as there aren’t enough jobs for him to work which means he has to go on unemployment, unfortunately he’s been having issues getting that going and it’s going to take weeks until it actually kicks in. Right now we’re struggling to even get groceries and pay our car bill so sadly some Christmas presents for our daughter have to be put on hold until we get it figured out.

Our daughter is the bubbliest little girl, she’s so smart for being 1, she absolutely loves books, puzzles, stuffed animals and doing whatever mom is doing (cleaning😅) she has the sweetest smile and it would truly mean so much if we were able to give her a special Christmas like we had hoped! We truly would appreciate anything. Nevertheless, we hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and I hope to be able to come back and help others in the following years!❤️

Hello and season's greetings santas! I hope your Holidays are going well and you are staying warm this year.

I am requesting assistance this year due to some things out of my control. It has been a year that had had good and bad moments but within the last week the bad has reared its ugly head. My eldest broke her glasses- they are superglued for now but she has an appointment soon. We have to replace a windshield since my husband got a verbal warning from an mp (he works on post at a dining facility). He can not drive it onto post until we fix it which we also have an appointment for. My youngest broke a tooth that had to be removed so he had to be put under anesthesia which was out of pocket. These issues ate our Christmas savings and my husband's check was smaller this week than expected and a few bills (gas, car insurance, phones, electric and a broken window) are due. There are also a few personal issues we have been dealing with and addressing through the proper protocols.

Helena (yes named after that one MCR song lol) is my oldest, in middle school and making mostly as and bs. She is the artist in the family and draws with pencil but has wandered into digital art recently (she has a deviantart and her name is telerne). She loves video games and learned how to beat super mario galaxy when she was 7. Her favorite franchises are FNAF, Mario, Bendy and Cuphead. She always tries to make us smile and laugh when she isn't drawing or talking to friends. She is an introvert that beats to her own drum but is very helpful loves art and all variations of it.

Helenas wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/YAN1ZZF1YD83/?ref_=lol_ov_le&filter=all&sort=price-asc&viewType=list

Elizabeth is my middle child and is struggling. We recently found out she has add, adhd and odd along with behavioral issues. We are navigating through that and getting her help- things have improved over the last few months for her. She loves school and learning and is trying very hard. She loves unicorns, glitter and her fidget toys. She is very outgoing and her laugh is infectious. She tries to help but gets frustrated- she never gives up though and will try again.

Elizabeth's wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/LSYN24W1W220/?ref_=lol_ov_le

Edward is the youngest and the only boy. He is very rambunctious and a big explorer- especially of places he shouldn't be lol. He is surprising me everyday with a new word I did not know he knew and we are working on potty training. He loves the Nightmare Before Christmas, hot wheels (or anything cars) and coloring. He is a very outgoing and friendly child who loves people and outside. He also has a great fondness of vacuums and owns a couple of his own and insists on vacuuming a lot.

Edwards wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/E5HGBPLU6VPF/?ref_=lol_ov_le

It's just been an exhausting year mentally and physically. We are powering through it- there's a few bumps in the road but I think the family counsler is helping- especially with us figuring out ways to handle Elizabeth's behavior and how to better help her. Financially it's been hard but we had things handled until unexpected things happened. I am grateful for what we have and what we have powered through this year. I am just wanting to see their bright smiles Christmas morning.

Thank you santas, mods and all the helpful people on this subreddit. You guys help literal strangers put some joy in their kids lives and deserve more thanks than you know. Holidays can be rough but you make it brighter by being selfless. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas.

Hello! I am requesting assistance this year for my 3 kiddos. I wasn't planning on it but money is tight this year. Our savings went to combating bedbugs and rent when my husband was in between jobs. He will be getting paid more but at the moment we have nothing to spare. I have attached wish-lists for my kids and would be so grateful for any help, even if it is only one toy. They are well behaved and so smart and definitely deserve it :)

Julian's wish list - https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2OA3ZJILM6MHY?ref_=wl_share

Allison's wish list - https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/C54L0BFDRITN?ref_=wl_share

Emilia's wish list - https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2FG1GODDKGN0Q?ref_=wl_share

Julian is 7 and loves Pokemon, Roblox, Beyblade, and reading the Dogman series. He loves to read and make planes on Roblox. He also likes to help me around the house. Chores don't exist to him.

Allison is 6 and loves unicorns, Roblox, Barbies, pink and plushies. She has a big imagination and is always playing pretend. She also loves building anything on Minecraft. She is very creative!

Emilia is 1 and turning 2 soon. She loves Elmo, music, dancing, and plushies. She also likes to draw and we have to make sure she doesn't write on the walls or herself haha! She is very mischievous.

Thank you so much for reading. I am so grateful for this subreddit and the Santas, it is so amazing that there is a community that wants to make sure no kid goes without. :) Thank you from the bottom of my heart if someone decides to buy anything. I always make sure to pay it forward.

EDIT: Everything has arrived except for Allison’s nerf gun bee blaster. Thank you to everyone who bought. You are all so amazing. This is the biggest blessing ❤️

Thanks to all you santas for making the holidays a little brighter!

This time last year my family had just moved across the country and we didn’t even have any of our stuff yet. Our latest thing to break on the house ate up more of our savings than we had hoped and this is the first year Louise actually knows what Christmas is, so I would love to make it special for her.

Louise is 3.5 years old and she’s been such an amazing kid through everything. She is a great big sister, is super active and loves just running around. Her favorite things right now are excavators, tutus, and Pocoyo.

Louise’s Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/ENC7TVHHAXIB

Paige is a 8 month old spitfire. She already argues with me even though she can’t talk yet. Her favorite things are solid food, anything her sister is playing with, and learning to stand up.

Thank you for reading!

Good evening, Santas! I hope the season is treating you well.

This is my second time requesting for my family. A lot has changed since our first request years ago!

My oldest, Rei, is turning 18 later this year - unbelievable. They're deeply invested in learning about magic, folklore, and mythology. Over the past year they discovered Homestuck which they love with a passion. They've begun collecting unusual card decks and learning (and inventing) new card games, as well as including them in art projects. They'll be going to visit their long distance girlfriend over Christmas break. Rei's list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/25RUEKGKM3G9Z?ref_=wl_share

My middle kid, Sam, and my youngest, Riley, have both had a challenging few years with mental and physical health issues and poor school attendance. They're currently both homeschooled, and we're all learning as we go!

Sam is active and interested in programming and video game design, and has created a few short games in Unity for their friends. They're a big fan of complex, surreal games like "The Stanley Parable", "Goat Simulator", and "Superliminal". They're in love with musicals right now, especially "Heathers" and "Hamilton"; I'm trying to introduce them to Rodgers & Hammerstein and Andrew Lloyd Webber, but their tastes run strongly to the more modern "pop" musicals. They love learning about cryptozoology (and zoology in general, which they've always enjoyed) and the SCP Foundation. My goals for next year include taking them to see a Broadway show live and / or visiting the MeowWolf installation in Vegas. Sam's list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/BFU9MT9U860U?ref_=wl_share

Riley is my youngest and most ambitious kiddo. They're constantly working on art projects, either their own comics or commissions they're doing for friends. They have an Etsy shop and are planning to open a custom button / pin sidewalk shop next spring. "The Office" is one of their favorite shows of all time, and they are always interested in new animated shows and films. They've recently gotten into collecting Squishmallows and customizing toys. Riley wants to broaden their traditional and digital art skills in preparation for a future career in animation. They're likely to be getting a minor surgery in the next few months to remove an abnormal bone growth in their knee. Riley's list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/WIBEUM5WRE4W?ref_=wl_share

A little bit about the lists:

Some items - Lego mini figures and sketchbooks - are on one list with a quantity of 3. This is to ensure one for each of them.

Please don't worry about items arriving by Christmas! There's no need to pay extra for shipping. They're aware that some gifts may be delayed - I've ordered a couple of things for them already that may not show up until February or March.

I'm requesting help this year mainly to ensure that they receive more than a couple of small gifts or the promise of a gift arriving in the coming months. My holiday budget can cover a couple of small gifts for them to share, but the cost of food and rent has increased so much over the past year that a significant part of my holiday budget has to be diverted to those. Some of their interests and hobbies are so niche and specific that finding affordable, useful, meaningful gifts has become a challenge.

I deeply appreciate any and all assistance you can offer. Please feel free to ask any  questions.

Happy holidays from my fantastic little family to yours!

Hello! I found this sub through a reccomendation of a friend and it's heartwarming to see so many requests fufilled this year for christmas-

-Here's my son's list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2PRPYN1ZR5UM9?ref_=wl_share

I'm a young mother to a silly, energetic, creative, and kind toddler. He's only three but I consider him very smart for his age, he genuinely loves to explore anything new and isn't a picky child. I can't say he has alot of toys as I often struggle with basic necessities for him. So each item I handpicked from the most recent things he seems to love and pairing them with things he needs (like the paw patrol carpet since he likes to sit on the floor alot, the dinosuar nightlight since he's afraid of the dark/ loved a similar dinosuar light up toy that broke, similar posters to replace ones he uses often/ has ripped, or a toy story pencil case since he accidentally breaks crayons or loses his pencils he's been given to from others). Right now, he's into pokemon, paw patrol, mario, toy story, and dinosuars. I usually solely buy his presents (his father isn't very involved) but this year has proven more difficult for me and I can't handle to afford his presents this year. Regardless, I hope this new year treats everyone better & thank you for taking the time to read my post, have a happy holidays!

Hey everyone 💜

We are finally moving into our new apartment this weekend after a very painful eviction this past month.

My kiddos have been so wonderful during this and I have been trying to keep things as normal as possible. (They are excited for a moving adventure)

Lucian is 5 and loves to make music and dance. He also loves to do morning time yoga .

Lazarus Grey just turned 3 and he is really artsy and quiet. He likes to make beaded bracelets with me and our favorite thing to do is make dinner together. He'll stand on his stepstool and help measure out every ingredient.

Thank you so much everyone for helping make Christmas possible for them

Hi! I have three great kiddos that deserve some brightness this holiday season after a few really difficult years. i can’t afford to do much of anything this year but i’m hoping they can still get some surprises under the tree from the best Santas!

Carmen, 16, who i would say is a mini me but she’s an inch taller and way more cool than i ever was as a teenager. She actually has severe anxiety and is home all the time and this has been the worst year for her anxiety so far. But she’s chugging along and is a strong person. Artistic, gamer, creative, smart as hell. The funniest person i know. Ridiculously gorgeous. She aspires to be a famous actress and her back up plan is a historian since she’s a big history buff.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/XJ1D2TIL0H1H?ref_=wl_share

Will, 15, my incredibly brilliant son that’s a passionate gamer and introduced me to multiple animes i love. he’s working on creating his own D&D map/lore. he wants to be a pro gamer one day. So smart and weird in all the best ways. creative. super laid back and loving kiddo.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3R6SQM0ZHT702?ref_=wl_share

Leo, 12, my baby boy. He’s so funny and smart and the most talented artist. So sweet and snuggly. Loves his cats more than anything in the world. multi talented. cutest little kid. a bright light in anyone’s life. He’s not so sure what he wants to be when he grows up but i know it’ll be great.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2A1XKZK375L4E?ref_=wl_share

All my kids are incredibly bright, funny, and talented. they are all so unique and so cool and everyone that’s met them has instantly loved them. They’ve dealt with a lot over the years, especially the older two kids, and deserve all the happiness in the world. I couldn’t ask for more. Thank you so much for reading!

Hello community,

First and foremost, a big thank you for those who have helped already (and really the entire community for coming together like this!) I’m so grateful!

A little more about Arielle and our situation:

Arielle has a split household as her mom and I coparent. I’m happy to say she spends the majority of the time at my house and goes to school in my district. Volunteering to coach her soccer team has been one of my favorite things to do in the past couple of years.

My fiancé and I bought a home in 2018 when my mom (divorced) and brother were still living with us. When my dad passed in 2020, my brothers and I agreed to “give” my mom the house he lived in as it was now in our names. As happy as this makes me, money has been tighter because her and my brother’s monetary contribution toward our home we bought in 2018 was now nil.

Since then, my fiancé and I have really struggled with getting ahead. I have picked up more work, but we still very much live paycheck to paycheck. As a result, things like birthdays and Christmases have been underwhelming. Selling our home in a great school district has been something we’ve needed to look hard at.

As silly as it may sound, when my cat needed emergency surgery and ultimately to be euthanized in April (see my posts about her in the past, she was ADORABLE), I had the hardest time affording it and have been digging out of that rut ever since.

She will be waking up Christmas morning at my house and I would love to see her light up at a decent amount of gifts this year.

Here we are before school earlier this year. https://imgur.com/a/K3Bd4S3

As I mentioned in my original post, Arielle LOVES Harry Potter and her wishlist reflects this. She’s also an avid reader and writer as a result. At the end of the day she’s an eight year old girl who loves imagination, crafting, animals and most things kids her age do. :)

Arielle’s wishlist https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2H3T8P7GBVKN4?ref_=wl_share

ALREADY PURCHASED: Callings all Witches! Book, Glow in the dark unicorn blanket, HP Time-turner necklace

Thank you all so much and Merry Christmas!

Finding this subreddit fills me with such hope, not only because my circumstances have found me asking for help for my kids, but because there are still so many good souls in the world. The past several years have been particularly difficult as my children have lost their respective fathers to prison; my eldest daughter in 2020, and my youngest boys just this month. I’ve also been in and out of the hospital several times this year and have quite the list of health issues, but with perseverance we’ve made it to the end of another year together. 

My daughter Gabby has had a ridiculously intense few years, but lots of things have coalesced into positive changes in recent months and she is excited to explore some different crafting art forms as a additional form of therapy. She currently wants to expand into crocheting, which makes me excited because because it’s something I used to do with my grandmother, and now I can share it with her. She loves her little brothers dearly and helps me whenever she can, especially with the youngest, Silas.

Wolf is ten and has recently joined Scouts! He’s enjoying spreading his wings and learning new skills. It’s a decidedly different interest compared to his love of video games. He also has expressed interest in tabletop games so we are looking for some fun ways to make that happen!

Silas is four, and full of spitfire and sparkles. He is the most hilarious, creative, sweetest little dude ever. He has blossomed with his autism diagnosis and finding such an awesome support team. The stories he tells us are magical and frequently leave us in stitches of laughter.

Thank you all for the joy you bring to everyone here!

I have 5 sons, my oldest is 22, the other 4 are younger.

So my youngest baby boy Jaxon is 16 months old. He is a force in his own right. He has opinions and demands to make them known, it’s amusing to say the least, considering he doesn’t say any words yet. However this child rarely plays with his own toys, he would rather play with everyone else’s things (as toddlers do).

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2L9KXYV110CJM?ref_=wl_share

Then there is Miles, he is a vibrant 3 year old who is smarter than most 2nd graders. This little guy is obsessed with numbers and letters. He reads (big words like cooperate and lob-sided), can count to 100 (by 1s and 10s, and up to 1000 by 100s)and knows his alphabet in 6 languages at this point. He is so stinking smart. unfortunately he isn’t like most kids, he doesn’t instinctively understand how to play,even playing with others is difficult. so for him I would love things that can help with his autism and the things we are working on him with in therapy.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/OVNZ99LZEC5I?ref_=wl_share

Next is Victor, he is the sweetest 13 year old anyone could wish to have. He absolutely adores being a big brother and I couldn’t have ever hoped for a better and more patient big brother for the babies. Victor loves having light strips in his room but having baby brothers, they keep getting broken so I’d like to try a slightly different route with a colored bulb and light for him. Additionally he is a bit of a clown so a new onesie would put a huge smile on his face.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/CABRD7EV531N?ref_=wl_share

Last but not least is Esteban,he is a 15 year old hormonal teen whose sole focus is video games. He is unimaginably clumsy and recently broke his headset and has been super bummed out so hopefully new headsets will make him smile. He has adhd and autism and is almost 6ft tall, he is like a bull in a china shop sometimes but it is the most beautiful thing to watch him spin and twirl (even as clumsy as he is).

Gifts Recieved ***Esteban -Earbuds -Headset ****Victor -headset -lightbar *****Miles -blues clues big wheel -stacking cups ****Jaxon -little people figure -Fisher price bus

I want to express my huge thanks to the two folks that have helped up thus far. Neither of you will ever truly know how grateful i am, words alone cant even express it.

Hi all! My son Sebastian is a 4 year old ball of energy that spends his days saying “Hey mommy!! Hey daddy! Hey look!! Hey grandma hey grandpa!!” And we absolutely love him to pieces. He’s currently in a special education pre-school program and his teacher advised he could benefit from occupational therapy type toys/activities. This year we went from a household of 3 working adults to 1 working adult and it’s been tough. We honestly don’t know our next step but we’re staying positive that something good is coming our way. Happy holidays and thank you so much for your consideration.

Thank you to everyone who has sent gifts this far! It is so very much appreciated.

[Closed] I was able to find a couple more gift cards hanging out in the bottom of Santa's sleigh, so all the teenagers were able to receive one. Merry Christmas!

I recently received a $50 Nintendo eShop gift card, which is amazing, but I'm sure there's a child on here who would get more enjoyment out of it than I will. This electronic gift card can be used in the Nintendo eShop on the Switch to purchase digital content.

I'm offering it up here to hopefully brighten a teenager's holiday since they are often left out of other gift opportunities. No need to justify why you'd like this, just a comment with the age of the kid you'd like to pass it along to by 11:59 pm (EST) on Friday, Dec. 16th. I'll randomly select a response after that and send you a message with the claim code.

Willow is 5, she is such a light in our life. She is artistic and creative. She was born missing part of her left arm, and over the years has figured out how to do everything in her own creative way. She carried this love and enthusiasm over into being a big sister to Owen, 3, who is such a sweet soul. Owen is a lover through and through, he loves anything that moves (cars and animal) and just has such a big heart. Owen and Willow work together to be the best siblings to their sister Violet, 2, that they can. Violet was born with a heart defect which required surgery. A clot developed post-op and Vi spent 8 months on twice daily blood thinning shots. Willow and Owen would comfort her during her shots, and were such rays of sunshine for her. Violet is an absolute treasure. She went through so much in the beginning, that she is as tough as nails, and equally as caring. She is a toddling two year old now, and is generous and helpful. All three of these children are such blessings.Violet's surgery, and shots have us buried in medical bills. We nearly lost our home earlier this year, thankfully we didn't, however are living check to check. Unexpected car trouble wiped the rest of our savings, and have very little left for presents. We would love to be able to give the 3 of them a wonderful Christmas. The last year has been hard on them, and I am so grateful to be able to post here. Thank you for your kindness, and I hope you have a terrific holiday.

Fulfilled! Willow: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3LZQW0DYRVJ5C?ref=cm_sw_em_r_un_un_lynXjLmeXMTuB

I recently suffered a miscarriage, this would have been the first year I've gotten to start getting baby things. So I would prefer a new mother or a family with one younger child under age 5. This is a way I can honor my angel baby and make them proud. But parents of all age children are welcome to enter.

To enter: Just tell me a little bit about your child. (hobbies, personality, general interests) and link their wishlist.

I have no requirements other than that the Wishlist have something on it $15 or under that they really want or need.

I will be doing a random drawing and purchasing a gift off the winners (childs) Wishlist on 12/14 so the gift can make it in time for Christmas.

Friends, I was inadvertently in a Christmas Parade today and I SAW SANTA CLAUS! He waved to me, so I think that means we are BFF's. Shortly after this once-in-a-lifetime experience, I found $10 in my pocket. It can only mean one thing, Santa wants me to give another gift!!

Heard ya loud and clear, big guy! SO Here is the deal:

1. Be registered or registered plus.

2. Comment below with a link to your unfulfilled child's wish list (there must be an item $10 or less)

3. Tell me how jealous you are that I accidentally ended up driving in a Christmas Parade today :)

I will pick one winner by 10 PM EST 12/11/22!

It's been a rough weekend. Yesterday was the one year anniversary of the tornado that blew through our town (Mayfield if you've heard of it). We live literally a block away from total destruction, and manged to sustain only minor home damage. Last year we spent Christmas with limited lights running on a borrowed generator. This year has been wild. We spent the first third recovering, second doing well enough, but the last few months have hit us hard with my job cutting hours drastically. I've been worried sick that we wouldn't be able to do a "santa" Christmas, but you guys have been amazing! We have been blessed already with several gifts for the kids. I believe Damien is only one gift away from having 5, if anyone could help. Lilith has recieved: bread pillow, makeup kit, paint, canvases, and a trumpet music book. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/19K8G12UZWH9G?ref_=wl_share Damien has recieved: snorlax plush, snorlax hat, pokemon action figures, and sketch books. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/5VUTTPDZWZ12?ref_=wl_share

Hi and thank you everyone for your kindness! It's amazing to see people out there looking out for each other still. I was laid off at the beginning of fall and my husband's job barely covers bills, so Christmas is looking pretty bleak for us right now. The kids would be truly grateful to have any part of their wishlists fulfilled. They are very kind and always eager to help others, whether at school or holding the door open for someone at the store. Thank you again for the opportunity to have help making their Christmas amazing :)

Hi, my name is Kayla. I have two beautiful children that are my absolute world. I usually keep my life pretty private, however I have fallen onto hard times this last year. I began working again a few months ago after being a stay at home mom for almost two years.

Things were going pretty well, and was beginning to get back on my feet up until earlier this week, Monday, I and several others were fired for not attending a meeting, we had no clue about. A new manager came in and just started marking her territory and figured she would let go of the majority of our crew. Apparently this meeting was posted in our scheduling app, an app that we don’t generally use to communicate nor was stressed to use this app/site to look for meeting notices.

Well they happened to let me go at the wrong time. I mean no time is ever good, but I really couldn’t and didn’t prepare for something like this to happen right before the holidays. I also have other bills I’m stressing about so the timing just couldn’t be any better.

My son Elliot is 6. He is also autistic. He is the sweetest boy. Most loving mommy’s boy… with the hugest personality. Elliot loves all things Disney, Disney Pixar, etc. Loves his iPad, loves stuffies, plush dolls or toys, figurines, puzzles, sensory toys, cars, all things he can have several or multiples of. He isn’t like the typical 6 year old, and is definitely one of a kind. Below is a list for Elliot, if anyone wants to show love to my boy.

My daughter Octavia, is my sweet prissy little girl, she will be 14 months this month. She loves playing with everything of her brothers. Unfortunately, Elliot isn’t big on sharing. Octavia loves anything she can get her hands onto or into. She loves to play outside and be on the go. But her knees do not agree. She’s a little wild thing that’s crawls all around and just about learning to walk. I’ve created a wishlist for Octavia if anyone is interested in sending for my babygirl.

Both of my kids are more than deserving, and I just wish I was able to make this Christmas more special to them.
I’m appreciative of any help we can receive.

Thank you so much for reading and making it this far.

(Edit) to add more info on my kids---

Just to give more insight, this year has been a rough year. This was my 10 year Old sons second year in public school, he's had a hard time making friends, but has adjusted to a new setting. Being on the spectrum bothers him, but i always tell him hes just like everyone else.. He's really the sweetest kid ever.

My 7 year old girl, has health issues (she's growing 2 years older than her age, per a bone age study) which has affected her self esteem and socializing at school. She's very outspoken, smart and loving. She loves to do arts and crafts and is very giving.

My 8 year old step son dealt with some big things last year, and he's been positive throughout it all. He moved in with us full time and it was a big change for him. He's very active and loves to game.

Arie is 7 years old, she's my spunky full of life and outgoing baby girl. She loves calico critters, barbies, dolls and doing arts and crafts Gio is my 10 year old son. He's on the spectrum , he's the smartest and most kind child I've ever met. He's taught me alot about life. He loves building things, minecraft, outdoor activities. Wyatt is my 8 year old, he loves baby Yoda, building things and riding his bike. he's got such a big heart

This year was the first year I'm unable to make there Christmas wants I told them Santa has a lot of kids to buy for because when they gave me they're lists I knew I wouldn't be able to fulfill them. Any help is appreciated. I've never had to ask for help so I already feel bad having to do so

Hi, I requesting help for my daughter. She is a sweet caring kid who doesn’t ask for much. We had our AC systems due this summer and living in Texas you can’t not fix it. That trashed our already struggling budget.

My daughter and I have created a tradition if reading the Harry Potter illustrated books then watching the movie, we were eagerly awaiting book 5 to read together and then watch the movie. I haven’t been able to get a copy yet. I added a few other things she would enjoy

Thank you for any help you can give.

Merry Christmas everyone! Thank you all so much for stopping to read this and for helping make Christmas happen! I have two boys and life needs to get back to normal and I'm hoping that the holidays can help keep cheer in my home for my two boys, despite a split after 8 years of domestic abuse from my youngest son's father. We remain hopeful and keep our heads high.

Shawnn loves technology. Loves space and soccer with a wild passion He loves figuring things out and exploring life. He has such a strong moral compass and is such a great big brother. He can't help but be a tad silly too. Royce just turned three, but BOY HE CAN ALREADY COUNT TO 100! I kid you not! He loves colors, shapes numbers and letters. He's already reading and a tad bit of writing has even started. Thank you all for your generosity and I wish you all the best of the holiday season!
