I have been trying to come up with the right way to give a heart felt Thank You to a total of twenty three people that helped show a grand mother and her five grandchildren that someone knows her struggles and cares. You all know who you are. Santa and his elves delivered everything on Christmas Eve. Comforters, pillows, clothing, bed sheets, a few toys and bikes, microwave, pots and towels. These were not your typical kids Christmas request. Yet it was what they asked Santa for. The outpouring of generosity to get it done flared up the tear ducts in my eyes. To see their faces when Santa walked in was priceless. So to all that helped I have this for you.

Matthew 6:1-4 (NIV)
“So when you give to the struggling,do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to those struggling, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”

Calling All Angels
Times are hard but harder for kids who are thrown into it because of circumstances beyond their control.
Recently I learned about a grandmother who has taken in 5 grandchildren because of deaths in the family and other issues. Needless to say Christmas will not be Christmas for them without some angels stepping in. Their list is made up of some necessary items along with a few toys. Clothing is a main item along with some bedding and pillows. There are some toys listed like Barbie Dolls, Legos, drawing and crafting things, and baby dolls. The list is overwhelming and it will definitely take many angels to help. If you would like to be one please contact Karen Z. at 803-262-9226 or message me and I can send you the list of one of them. There are 4 girls and one boy ages ranging from 6 - 11 yrs old.
If you would like to do a monetary donation I can do the shopping and send you the receipt for your donation with items listed what was purchased. My Venmo is -Zaledzieski or my phone number. I also have cash app or Zelle
I only request you let me know if you are purchasing pillows so they don’t get too many.
If anyone would like to help the grandmother there are two items she could use. One is a bed pillow and the other is a 1000 watt or better microwave.( microwave has been taken care of)
Thank you!

‼️ Action Alert: Tell Congress to back H.R. 4837 and H.R. 2623. These bipartisan bills would expand choices for veterans receiving mental health care.
📢 Veterans deserve transparency, safety, and real choices. They do not deserve a maze of prescriptions and side effects.
