WHERE ARE YOU CHRISTMAS? THAT'S A QUESTION THAT NO CHILD SHOULD HAVE TO ASK
IN 1985, LINDA BOOKER TRANSFORMED HER EXPERIENCES AS A YOUNG SINGLE MOM INTO AN ORGANIZATION THAT FOR 35 YEARS, HAS BRIGHTENED EACH CHRISTMAS FOR THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN IN THIS AREA BY DISTRIBUTING OVER A MILLION GIFTS TO THESE CHILDREN IN NEED.
THESE CHILDREN COULD BE HOMELESS OR PART OF A FAMILY GOING THROUGH A FINANCIAL OR MEDICAL CRISIS OR HAVE ONE OR BOTH PARENTS INCARCERATED.
LINDA AND HER VOLUNTEERS WORK TIRELESSLY TO SORT ALL THE GIFTS AND MAKE SURE NO CHILD'S WISH GOES UNFULLFILLED.
WE ARE AWARE THAT THIS YEAR HAS BEEN DIFFICULT FOR EVERYONE. MANY PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR JOBS. BUT THAT ONLY MEANS THEY'LL HAVE MORE CHILDREN ON OUR LIST!
BUT THIS YEAR DONATIONS HAVE BEEN SCARCE. ONE MAIN REASON IS THAT AFTER 29 YEARS, WAL-MART WILL NOT BE PARTICIPATING IN OUR ANGEL TREE PROGRAM BY ALLOWING US TO PUT THE ANGEL TREES IN THEIR STORES. WE ARE SO VERY GRATEFUL FOR THOSE YEARS BUT THIS HAS FORCED US TO COME UP WITH ALTERNATIVE WAYS TO COLLECT DONATIONS. THIS GOFUNDME PAGE IS ONE OF THOSE ALTERNATIVES.
THE THOUGHT OF NOT HAVING THE FUNDS TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL THE CHILDREN ON OUR LIST HAVE A GIFT FOR CHRISTMAS IS BREAKING OUR HEARTS. HOW DO YOU SAY "SORRY, NOT THIS YEAR" TO A CHILD WHO IS ALREADY DOING WITHOUT SO MUCH?
MANY OF THESE KIDS ASK ONLY FOR BASIC ITEMS, SUCH AS SHOES, SOCKS, UNDERWEAR OR MAYBE A WARM COAT. WE TRY TO PROVIDE EACH CHILD WITH AN ARTICLE OF CLOTHING AND A TOY SPENDING ABOUT $25 ON EACH ONE. YOU MAY THINK THAT'S NOT VERY MUCH, BUT OVER 30,000 VALLEY CHILDREN BENEFIT FROM ANGEL TREE EACH YEAR SO THAT ADDS UP TO A LOT!
THE NEED FOR ANGEL TREE TO SEE ITS MISSION THROUGH IS VITALLY IMPORTANT, REGARDLESS OF THE CHALLENGE WE CURRENTLY FACE.
PLEASE BECOME A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS ANGEL. ANY AMOUNT THAT YOU CAN GIVE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. YOUR DONATION WILL GIVE A CHILD SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN THIS HOLIDAY SEASON.
YOU WILL GIVE THE GIFT OF A SMILE TO A NEEDY CHILD ON CHRISTMAS MORNING, AND THAT CHILD WILL FEEL LOVED. I GUARANTEE, YOUR HEART WILL FEEL THAT JOY.
OUR MISSION HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND CONTINUES TO BE – A “SECRET SANTA” DONATION TO KEEP THE BEST INTEREST OF THE CHILD AT HEART, SO THEY FEEL EXTRA LOVE FROM A PARENT, RELATIVE, TEACHER OR FRIEND THAT COULD OTHERWISE NOT AFFORD TO GIVE.
