Christmas Fund Drive
Details for this year’s Minion Christmas Drive. Beat the Christmas rush and give early!
Here is the specific info on the two families we are sponsoring this year!
The first family consists of a single mom, currently in school, with 3 kids, one of whom is disabled. They’ve had some losses in their immediate family and consequently their support network is thin.
The kids are:
7 year old girl. She is blind. She is very small and is on growth hormones and is now wearing size 5 which is a bit big on her. She loves to have any jewelry she can put on her stuffed dog who is about 14 inches long. She really likes name tags or anything she can use for that purpose and puts them on the plastic coil wrist keyholders - key bungie type things.
5 year old boy. He also wears size 5 and loves anything boy related -Spiderman, Transformers, Sponge Bob. He is a very active boy. They live in an apartment but have access to playground and sidewalks. He said a Play Station would be nice!
2 year old boy wearing 2 T shirt and pants. He would enjoy any toys designed for toddlers.
Mother would like a coffee maker and wears medium tops and size 5, 6 jeans.
The second family is headed by another single mom, described as VERY VERY hard working. She has three older kids:
12 year old girl: size 1 junior pants/small womans shirts. Loves mystery/fantasy type books, jewerly making, computer games
9 year old boy: wears size 10 boys clothes. Loves computer games, nerf (like those guns) legos, cars, rocket ships.
10 year old boy, wears size 30/29 pants, mens small shirt. Likes the same things as his brother, plus legos and knex. Likes to build things.
The mother would like queen sheets, single sheets, bath towels and silverware.
Edited to add - I have a request in to find out if all 3 children need bedding, or if it is just one, so we can buy the appropriate color and amount!
Remember, $5 & $10 donations are ALWAYS welcome!
