                          Families that are struggling and would like to get
                          assistance from Toys for Tots must contact the local
                          TFT coordinator and inquire about registration requirements.
                          If in a community where Toys for Tots is operating, once
                          registered, they should then be recipients of toys for
                          their children.  They can do this by:

                          Visiting our website (www.toysfortots.org) to locate the
                          dropdown menu to Find a Local Campaign Office.  Select their

                             Hello, my name is Carla Reed and I am a military spouse.
                             I was directed to this site from a neighbor and wanted
                             more information on how to request assistance. My family
                             is in need of food and clothing. We are in need of food
                             and clothing for our 3 children. Thanks so much!

                             Hi I am the wife of a Seabee SK (storekeeper) currently
                             deployed to Iraq and the mother of two great kids, one 
                             who is autistic and needs to be home to keep his routine
                             stable and prevent anxiety or distress. It's bad enough
                             that Dad is away and he is missing his dad. 
 
                             Our home was damaged, our roof is leaking and causing
                             inside damage to the home. Our homeowners insurance 
                             has a $1000.00 deductable and does not cover flooding 
                             damage. Right now we are unable to afford the cost of
                             repair.With losing heat, electricity and the roof leaking we
                             were forced to stay at a hotel for 5 days at a cost of $800.00
 
                             Any assistance anyone is willing to provide for my children
                             and me would be greatly appreciated.Grocery/commissary 
                             cards or NEX, AAFES gift certificates would be appreciated. 
 
                             Sincerely,  Regina

                             tough time i'm having. I served in the United
                             States Marine Corps with 2nd LAAD BN in MCAS
                             Cherry Point, and came home when my father
                             passed away. I then joined the Army National
                             Guard to stay stateside to tend to all my
                             fathers funeral needs, and arrangements. I
                             recently re-enlisted with the hopes of getting
                             my bonus before christmas so that my children
                             could have presents, and I could buy toys to
                             take to the Toys for Tots Drive. The CA Army
                             National Guard Reclassed my MOS and promised
                             I would get my bonus before christmas, now
                             they are saying that its not going to happen
                             and sorry for my luck. I am a single father
                             with two small children and its looking meek,
                             I dont make enough, and my employer is reducing
                             hours due to the economy. I am currently seeking
                             a conditional release from the CA Army National
                             Guard so that I can hopefully re-enlisted back
                             into the Active Duty Component. I hope that you
                             can help me in this dier situation as I have no
                             where to turn.My Daughter Is Jennifer Ann Vargas

                             Hi I contacted you in nov about christmas. I am trying
                             to find a way to get some help with groceries. I move at the
                             end of the week and with all the expenses moving I am at the
                             bttom of the barrel when it comes to food we have can veggies
                             but thats about it. I am just looking for a hand up not a hand out. 
                             With the bills coming up on the 1st it could be feb 1st befor I
                             have the money to buy real groceries. The kids are out of school 
                             starting next week and they have already gone through what I
                             thought was a months worth of breakfast food and its just the
                             15th if anyone could help with some vouchers or grocery store
                             gift cards I would be grateful. Thanks

                             Hello, My name is Amber Wall. My husband and I recently 
                             have moved into off base housing, we are not used to the pay
                             cut due to him not getting bah since we live in military 
                             housing. We are behind on our comcast bill, we dont want to
                             loose this as its the only way to communicate with family 
                             back home. The unpaid balance right now is 138.64. We are 
                             in dire need of help with this. We dont need anything for the
                             holidays, I am just blessed he is home to spend it with me, All
                             I want is to keep our communication with friends and family 
                             back home. I would be so grateful if someone could help us 
                             out with this. The total for this bill is 334.19 but I am not 
                             asking anyone to pay the whole bill, its just I need the 138.64 
                             to keep it on for another month and by then we should be ok. 
                             This bill is due by the 27th of december. My husband is a sonar 
                             tech 2nd class. He just got off sea duty and now is on his shore 
                             duty and finally able to take a step back and breathe. Thanks to 
                             everyone who reads this and we would be very grateful of 
                             whoever can help us. Thank you very much

                             My name is Hawa and my husband Castronando is in the 
                             National Guard in transition to active duty Army soon, we
                             hope.  He is a former Marine where he served for 14 years
                             and 8 months. He has been without work since Dec 2007 
                             when he was released.  I have been umemployed since 
                             Oct2007. We have six children and with neither one of us
                             working and savings ran out, we have no way to pay our 
                             rent for Jan, pay our bills for Jan, keep our truck out of
                             repo,or even buy for the kids for Christmas.  We are so
                             down on money and luck we don't know where to turn.  
                                My husband is looking for work as am I and he is starting 
                             school soon.  He served time in Iraq and was at the Pentagon 
                             when it got attacked.  He has an impressive resume and still 
                             can not get employed anywhere, eventhough he was honorably
                             dicharged.  Our six children range from 13 to 4 and only the
                             older ones understand a little of what is going on. I hope
                             that you can find us someone to help in any capacity, even
                             if it is a job.  I am willing to do anything.  We live in
                             Warner Robins, GA.  Thank you in advance.Hawa Wiley-Ross

                             My name is Mary.  My husband is currently in Iraq and 
                             will be until June 2009.  We have 2 children, a 5 year 
                             old girl, and a 3 year old special needs boy.  This is the
                             first time we will be without my husband at Christmas.  
                             Due to some unexpected medical problems with both
                             me and my son, as well as car repairs, things are really
                             tight this Christmas.  My husband is a reservist, and this 
                             deployment has been very hard on us both emotionally 
                             and financially.  We would love any help that your 
                             organization might be able to offer us this Christmas
                             season.  We could use  gift cards for food and clothing,
                             perhaps some toys, and anything else that might help
                             to make this Christmas a little brighter.
                             Thank you Mary P.

                             Hi, My name is Yvonne, I am a stay at home
                             mom of four children 16,14,2 and 1. My
                             husband Daniel is SPC for the National Guard
                             and is deploying to Iraq. The reason we are
                             asking for help is that since June my husband
                             Dan has been on and off orders in preparation
                             for deployment to Iraq January 2009. The result
                             is two weeks on and two weeks off of military
                             and Civilian job has caused gaps in pay. At
                             times we have gone 3-4 weeks without any pay
                             at all. The most recent was when Dan was on
                             Active duty orders for three weeks in November
                             1-22 and his orders were not entered correctly
                             which delayed payments.  We went from October
                             22 to November 26 without any pay and then he
                             returned to civilian work and we went another
                             3 weeks without pay for that, which in turn
                             caused payments to be late and now we are trying
                             to catch everything up and make it current before
                             deployment.

                             Also, Our Landlord has notified us that he will
                             be renovating our house for sale this spring and
                             has requested we find a new residence before Dan
                             leaves for Iraq which means 1 month to find
                             something and downpayment & Securities on housing
                             and utilities on the new place. Now Dan is back
                             on Active Duty for 4 days for SRP. And we are
                             losing regular civilian pay again.  All this
                             juggle is hard to bare in addition to trying to
                             prepare for deployment. I have done my best with
                             keeping the utilities paid to keep lights and heat
                             for the last few months. But now we need help this
                             month with paying almost everything, Rent, Car
                             Payment, Car Insurance, and Utilites to get current
                             and the fact we dont have anything left over for
                             Christmas is making even more stress in our home.
                             If anyone could help, it would be greatly
                             appreciated.God Bless, Yvonne Lake

                             Hi my name is Nickie Farrar. I am in great need for
                             helpto get my four kids christmas this year. Me and
                             my husband are having so big time money problems. MY 
                             wonderful husband Spc. Rusty Farrar is away right now.
                             he is fighting in Iraq to keep us all here at home safe.
                             In the past year that he has been gone every thing that
                             could go wrong has indeed gone wrong. it would seem
                             that i have nothing but bad luck with out him here with
                             me. It is just one thing after another. We have four
                             great kids three girls ages 6, 5, and 4, and a baby boy
                             that is 2.This year has been so hard on them. They miss
                             their daddy so much. They are just to young to understand 
                             what is going on. They want their daddy to come home 
                             so bad and they just dont understand why he cant. Our 
                             6 and 5 year old are taking it really hard because they 
                             know that christmas is comming and daddy wont be here.
                             More then any thing I want my kids to have a good 
                             christmas this year. I want them to feel the love and

                             Hello, 
                             I came across your site in a search for holiday assistance. 
                             What type of assistance do/can you provide? We are a 
                             USMC family and we moved back to the US 2 years ago
                             to an independant duty station. We are not located on or
                             near a base or close to  any military facitlities. Everything 
                             we work for has to go to our house and utilities. 2 of our 
                             children have had to bypass college so far because of 
                             financial matters. We are in need of holiday help and 
                             general help making ends meet as well. We have 4 children 
                             20, 18, 17, and 9 anything you can do for us will be 
                             greatfully appreciated. Sincerely, 
                             SSgt. Thomas Lewis Jr and Mrs. Lewis

                             Hi my name is Mrs. Davis, my husband is active duty military. 
                             People think just cause were military that we have it made and 
                             that we don't have hard times.  Well, right now we are having 
                             a very hard time trying to make it a wonderful christmas for my
                             kids.  Thats all thats important to us.  We recently had a fall back
                             dealing with our car that put us in a financial bind.  We had no
                             choice but to pay the money or we couldn't work.  Now we are 
                             struggling trying to pay bills and get groceries, and most of all 
                             christmas.  I hate having to decide between keeping my lights 
                             on or getting groceries.  This year has been rough, but we are 
                             making it.  I am looking for someone who can look into their 
                             hearts this year and help us in anyway they can.  I have 3 kids,
                             ages 3, 5 and 7.  If u can help please reply to this as soon as 
                             you can.  Thank u so much.  Mrs. Davis

                             Fort Lewis. We live in Tacoma, WA. Financial hardships 
                             have really taken a tole on my family this year, and my 
                             12 year old son will have a very small Christmas. I have
                             tried everything to get some help, but I was too late for 
                             many of the places I have found. If you could help me 
                             with this situation, I would be forever grateful.
                             Thank you,Laura Reichert

                             Hello My name is Sandra Morgan. My husband is in the Navy 
                             stationed in Virginia Beach, VA. Back in March of this year our 
                             son was taken from us and placed in foster care due to our 
                             babysitter leaving him alone. Of course we got the blame put 
                             on us. Luckily just 2 days before thanksgiving we got full custody 
                             of him back. He is now home. In June though we found out that
                             we were having our second baby. She is due in February. Our
                             financial status right now is just shot. We are living paycheck to
                             paycheck and there are times were we don't even get that. 
                             We are having a hard time with getting our son things for Christmas. 
                             He is 2 years old and he is very active. He basically needs things like 
                             cloths, which he is in a 2T, and things that he can learn with. He 
                             loves Thomas the train and Disney Cars. Even a stocking for him 
                             would be fine. He is just the sweetest little boy in the world and My 
                             husband and I would like to make Christmas special for him this year.
                             We could also use some help to get things for Christmas dinner. So 
                             if there is anyone out there that can help we would more the appreciate it. 
                             Thank you Sandra Morgan

                             Hi my name is Stephanie. I am a mother of 1 boy 
                             6yrs and two girls 4 and 1. My husband is deployed
                             until the middle of next year and since he has been 
                             gone it has been very rough on us. Having to buy 
                             new glasses for our son almost every 6 months, and 
                             having to pay for certain medicens because they are
                             not covered with tricare is starting to hurt us pretty 
                             bad. I am the type that will give help all day everyday
                             but I never ask for help my self. I have just came to
                             realize that since I can not work because of my 
                             scoliosis I needed to get help for us somewhere. 
                             Anything you fill fit to help with will be a blessing. 
                             Thank you From Stephanie
                              Thank you Doug & Kathie Koyle

                             Hello!  My name is Natasha and my husband is in the Army 
                             National Guard.  We have three wonderful kids.  I am a stay
                             at home mom and my husband works so hard for our family
                             , but this past year we have had ups and downs.  With
                             trainings and activiations for the military, his civilian
                             employers haven't been so understanding.  
 
                             We live pay check to pay check and there are times when
                             it's just not enough.  We stick to a strict budget, but when 
                             the military calls he goes even if pay gets messed up.  We
                             need help with our house payment so we can get caught 
                             up and get back on track.  Thank you from a military family.

                             My family desperately needs help. My husband recently 
                             finished his Army tour in the beginning of August 08 
                             after a 4 year tour overseas. 
                             We have a 1 year old son and things have been super 
                             tight. I recently joined the reserves to get my family 
                             health insurance as we could not afford health insurance
                             on my salary alone. We would appreciate ANY help that we 
                             can get!! 
                             Thank you for your time and please let me know if there 
                             is anything we can do to help get us some assistance.

                             Hello, my name is PV2 Kimberlee McLeod.  I am stationed at
                             Fort Hood Texas, my family got here in October, our only
                             source of transportation went down before I had to report here.
                             So we are here with no transportation and my husband is 
                             having a hard time finding a job due to the fact. When my 
                             husband was in the service and deployed to Iraq my girls 
                             had experienced a Christmas I thought they would never have 
                             to go through, waking up to no presents under our tree because 
                             times were hard for us back then to as I was not working and 
                             had no luck finding a job. I really just don't want them to have 
                             to go through the same thing again for a second time. My family
                             would be grateful for any help and it would be grately 
                             appreciated we have 3 girls, Marisol, 11 yrs old, Reannah,  8 yrs 
                             old and Samantha, 6 yrs old. Thank You, The McLeod Family
                             Thanks K Lane

                             I am asking for help with my two children boy 2 and girl 7. I 
                             lost my job this past summer and have not been able to find 
                             work since. We live in a small  city and jobs are hard to come
                             by. My husband was staying at home with the children while 
                             I was working. My husband is set to starting deployment
                             training on Dec 1st and then will be deployed for a year. He 
                             will be gone 15 months in total. Being the fact that he is 
                             deploying no one will give him a job, because he is leaving. 
                             We have never asked for help before. This is our first time. 
                             My husband will get to come home this Christmas, but not 
                             next Christmas. We are not able to buy the children anything 
                             for Christmas. I would like to make this a special Christmas
                             for my children, since their father will be leaving. So if any 
                             one can help I would really appreciate it. Thank and may 
                             God bless.

                             hello everyone my name is Derrick and  i am
                             in desperate need of christmas help for my
                             family. things have been so rough for us this
                             year. i just found out that my wife had  copd
                             and that her lungs are deteriorating. On top
                             of that i find out that my son has very dry
                             skin and we have to do a treatment everyday
                             for him so he can play outside and go to school.
                             then my daughter stops breathing in her sleep
                             so she has to have a sleep study done. Then on
                             december 10th i have  to have surgery due to an
                             injury that i got while i was deployed in iraq
                             to fix my ankel. I have tried to get help here
                             and i am not getting anywhere. I just don't know
                             what else to do. i don;t what my kids to wake up
                             christmas morning and find that they have no gifts
                             for christmas. I know that i am not good at asking
                             for help but i hope someone out there will help my
                             family out this holiday season. My son likes
                             anything spongebo or spiderman and into army stuff
                             and my daughter likes princess and dora the explorer
                             and bratz. and if they can find in there heart to
                             suprise me and my husband with a little gift that

                             I was on the website trying to see if I can get help.  My
                             husband is deployed to Africa and I have three small
                             children.  When I saw the first post, I knew I could help 
                             one of the women in need. She needed baby stuff.   I am 
                             glad I could help another family. My need is different.  I 
                             could benefit from a grocery gift certificate-My kids love
                             to eat.  Thank you Dawn Gizzo

                             Hi, my name is Elizabeth, my husband is stationed at the Naval 
                             Hospital in Maryland.  We are currently expecting our first 
                             baby due in March, which came as a surprise... We are waiting 
                             for our little girl and wondering how in the world will we be able 
                             to get the basic necessities, as it is we barely make it month to 
                             month! I guess what i want to say is can you help us give our baby
                             a crib, blankets or just clothes, actually anything that your heart 
                             can give! Thank you as you have taken the time to read these lines!
                             God bless you and yours...
                             Thank you D. Gizzo

                             Hello,  my name is SPC Rowena Smith and I am looking
                             for help with the holiday season.  I am a single mother of 3. 
                             I am due to deploy in the summer next year.  Well this will
                             the first Christmas that I have spent with my kids since 2005.
                             In 2006 I deployed to Iraq and had to do 15 months.  When 
                             we redeployed 3 days before Christmas and I couldn't get a
                             flight out to see them.  Now with deployment coming up this
                             will be Christmas that spend with them before I leave.  I 
                             would like to make this a special one for them but funds are
                             tight.  My kids understand our circumstances and they are
                             very well behaved children.  My oldest is a sophomore in 
                             high school and a honor student, by the time I get back from 
                             deployment he will be a senior.  My other 2 do very well in 
                             school.  So if possible could you help make this a special 
                             Christmas

                             Pope AFB, NC
                                                                   
                             Hi my name is SSgt Richard Ramsey currently stationed at 
                             Pope AFB nc. I am writing this letter today because I am 
                             ashamed of myself and I realy feel like a failure in more ways
                             that one. I have been active for 12 years been deployed 5 times
                             overseas i have a wife of 11 years with a 14 year old son and a 
                             16 year old daughter. My wife recently had surgery on her neck 
                             and found out that she had cancer on her thyroid. Due to these 
                             discoveries she can not work anymore, or at least for quite a 
                             while and her income has supplemented the family income. Now
                             we have barely enough money to pay our bills. Sometimes food 
                             is set to the side. We can not afford a freaken thanksgiving dinner.
                             So we have decided as a family to go down to the local rescue 
                             mission on thanksgiving and serve meals all day to the homeless. 
                             Christmas well what christmas. I told my kids that I would give 
                             them each some money and they are fine with that, it is just that
                             not having a tree or presents under is making my wife depressed. 
                             So I am reaching out to you and anyother company or family that 
                             wouldnt mind sponcoring us for christmas. We had to give our 
                             living room set and bedroom set back because we could not 
                             afford the payment anymore, however Someone gave us a couch 
                             and I purchased a bed and dresser at a yard sale, so we are fine
                             with that. My truck is in the shop and my other car needs repairs
                             badly but will have to wait. By far am I begging, i just wish that
                             someone could help and if not, i will let god be god. Happy Hollidays.
                              Thank you Lynn Harris

                             I am writing to ask for help for the Christmas Holidays
                             for my family. We have  4 children and my wife is
                             currently pregnant.  3 boys and 1 girl, the boys ages
                             are 15, 9, and 5; my daughter is 14. This will be our
                             first Christmas together  since Aug 2002 due to all the
                             deployments I have  had,> I just want to give my family
                             a special Christmas with going completely in to financial
                             ruin.  I didn't put any thing specifically we wanted but
                             I am sure we would be grateful any help.

                             My name is SPC Rudolph Bolton We are located in
                             Ft Lewis Washington 98433, and I'm writing you
                             in hopes that you will help me. My wife is not
                             working and we have 3 children Kyra who is 6,
                             Gabrielle who is 5 and my son Jaden who is 1.
                             Due to financial hardships I am unable to provide
                             them with the Christmas that they deserve. I am
                             struggling just to fill their stockings.
                             Everything seemed to go wrong around us and we
                             had to take money out of the Christmas fund that
                             we have saved throughout the year.. just to pay
                             for our basic necessities. Please help me and my
                             family. Anything would be appreciated... We are
                             not even able to buy our children winter clothes
                             and it is getting colder here everyday. There are
                             so many things that I had planned on buying them
                             and now I can barely put food on their plates.
                             All I want is for them to be able to wake up on
                             Christmas morning and be able to have a big smile
                             on their face knowing that Santa did not forget
                             about them.  So if you could provide us with,
                             gift certificates for food, clothes or Christmas
                             toys that would be greatly appreciated.
                             Thank you for reading this and I hope you have a
                             good holiday!

                             Hi my name is Ashley Luna married to PFC Julio Luna.
                             My husband is deployed in Afghan and we have two
                             girls and also my little brother that lives with me.
                             I hope this isn't to late to ask for help for the
                             holidays. My two girls are 1 and 2 and my brother is
                             13. I am asking for help because this year has been
                             really hard on us. We are barley getting by on paying
                             our regular bills and now having to think about
                             Christmas is even harder  to deal with. My  husband
                             as been gone for almost 6 months now. This is the
                             first Christmas with out him and its been a hard year
                             and 6 months. I am asking for help due to I know I
                             cant give my kids and brother the things they need
                             and want. I know its not about the presents but every
                             child deserves a  wonderful Christmas. To that what I
                             cant give them. This is very  hard for me to ask for
                             help but I am here confused, sad, scared and and
                             feeling like a failure as a mother and sister. My
                             husband is really trying to give me and my children
                             a great life just this year as been not so good. So
                             if there is someone that can help us it will be so
                             much appreciated. Thank you from a military wife

                            NEW -Hi my name is Ashley Luna. Wife of PFC Luna
                             Julio, Stationed in Afghan.  I have emailed you for
                             help for Christmas for my kids. I am in need also 
                             of my house payment. I am two months behind on it 
                             due to having to pay other pills in the household.
                             Because its 2 months late it could go into 
                             foreclosure. I am so confused on how to get the 
                             money to pay it. My husbands checks aren't enough 
                             to pay the house plus all the other bills and food

                             back to Iraq .he suffered a severe back injury
                             and has already undergone one surgery and is
                             awaiting another .he is a wonderful husband and

                             Hello my name is Brandy. My husband William is 
                             deployed in Iraq for the 2nd Christmas in a row. 
                             With all the problems with the economy things are
                             very tight for us and our 3 children. It is hard enough
                             always worrying about him but to have to worry about 
                             where Christmas is going to come from is even harder. 
                             We are asking for help. I know there are more needy
                             people out there and if you can't help that is fine. I am 
                             just trying this to try to make a Christmas for the kids. 
                             William and I have so much on our plates it would be 
                             easier to not have lose sleep over this too. Thank you for
                             your time. Brandy Macomber  Proud Army wife to

                            Hi there. I was referred to you by a friend who received
                            some sort of assistance. We are in desperate need this
                            holiday season. My husband is National Guard, but was placed
                            on ADSW orders in May and has been active duty since then.
                            We went about 8 weeks with no pay when he was first placed
                            on these orders. During that time, we had a new baby and
                            fell behind on everything. He deployed on November 13th. and
                            we received only $1024 on November 7th and wont be getting
                            paid again until sometime in December. I have contacted some
                            organizations, such as USACARES.com but the process takes
                            about 45 days. We are really hurting for money this holiday
                            season. We had to pay for my husbands ticket to come home
                            for Christmas and I just dont want things to be miserable
                            when he is home for his leave. Please let me know if I can
                            receive any assistance at all.
                            ANYTHING would be appreciated. My son is still young
                            enough that he wont remember this Christmas, but I'd
                            still like him to have a couple of things. Thank you so
                            much.

                            are, my husband is currently deployed in Iraq. We have
                            3 children, 13, 10, and 6. This is our first deployment, 
                            as my husband joined the Army late in life. We are 
                            from Northern Michigan and are currently stationed at 
                            Fort Hood, Texas. I am not usually one that is good at 
                            asking for help, however I am in a position right now 
                            that I am not sure what else to do.

                            us for 2 years to go on an unacompanied tour in Japan. We 
                            have been trying to figure out how to have a great Holiday 
                            before he has to leave. I heard that you might be able to 
                            help. My kids need clothes and jackets and maybe some toys
                            if anyone can help.. Thank you so much for listening. God 
                            Bless all of you and your families, wherever they may be!! 
                            Thank you Brandy Shelton

                            ill. We have been trying to get back on our feet
                            and everytime we get one foot out the other trips
                            us up again. We are behind on our vehicle
                            payment and need some assistance. If your not
                            able to help us are you aware of anyone who may 
                            be able too? I can't work due to my sons issues

                            Ft. Hood, Texas                 
                            We are looking for help this christmas.  My husband
                            leaves for Iraq shortly after christmas.  We just dont 
                            have any extra cash for the holidays.  Due to the high
                            gas prices over the last year we have fallen into the
                            hole yet again this year. The holiday spirit is not in our 
                            house right now.  We are looking for a Christmas angel 
                            this year.  We have 3 boys 13-8-6 and two are special 
                            needs.  If you can find it in your heart to help a family
                            this year we would be forever in your debt.  I know that 
                            there are many other families in need this year, I am
                            just hoping to find our angel/saint to save christmas in 
                            this house this year Daddy is here this year and I would 
                            love to make sure that everyone smiles and enjoys the 
                            holiday season.  Thank you very much for taking the 
                            time out to read my message.  God bless you and your 
                            families. Mrs. A  Fields
                            Thank you Brian Gardner

                            Hi, my name is Sarah. My husband, Matthew 
                            and I have been married for 7 years and we 
                            have 4 beautiful children. My husband just 
                            returned from Kuwait with a labral tear in 
                            his shoulder. He was a paratrooper in the 
                            82nd Airborne and now he is serving as a 
                            medic in his guard unit. Christmas is almost 
                            here and we are living paycheck to paycheck...
                            never quite getting everything taken care of.
                            Bills pile up and have to wait so that we can 
                            buy groceries and diapers first. God has always
                            provided for us or directed us to help. Maybe 
                            this web site is our answer this year??? I would 
                            love to be able to buy our little ones some gifts 
                            for Christmas-- Zoey is 10, Olivia is 5, Ava is 3, 
                            and Aidan is 1. WHew! Quite a crew!  My family 
                            has helped with Coats and boots for them etc- ...
                            it is just the things that bring big smiles to THEIR 
                            faces that I would love to be able to give them on 
                            Christmas! THanks so much for your consideration!
                             Thank you Susan & Jim Boehnlein

                           hi my name is madonna lancaster and my husband is the
                           service member, we just recently went from active duty 
                           marine corps to nevada army national guard, and during 
                           our transition we fell behind on our car payment, and all 
                           of the money that was given to us for moving by the marine 
                           corps, went into moving our house hold furniture, and our 
                           car and our kids from camp pendleton, ca to las vegas nevada,
                           the condo that we live in is owned by a friend of the family 
                           and we have also fell behind a month in paying an we are 
                           kind of caught in a bind now, we have to make a 701.35 
                           payment to ford credit on december 22nd and we also have 
                           to pay 750.00 in rent on december 1st, with out either one we 
                           would be handicapped, because we need the car because it is 
                           our only means of transportation for my husband to go to work
                           and for me to go to school and we need the house because we
                           have to provide a roof for my children to lay their head down
                           at night, we are hoping that you guys can help us in time
                           because we really dont have any other options, we cant do
                           pady day loan advances because they dont loan money to 
                           service members or their spouses, and wedont have enough 
                           credit to get a real loan, so i'm hoping this really works, 
                           because thats all i have left to go on, if some one could 
                           please get back to me i would really appreciate it,
                           thank you Madonna

                           Hi. My name is Cyndel Sorenson and I am 22. My 
                           husband is a soldier in the US Army, stationed at 
                           Fort Lewis in Washington. I am writing in hopes
                           that someone can help us out with Christmas for 
                           ur 3 children. Nicholas Anthony will be 4 in March. 
                           Jadin Joseph will be 2 this Thursday (November 20).
                           And Arianna Jade is 3 months. With the money my 
                           husband makes right now (about 480 every 2 weeks), 
                           we are lucky if we can put groceries in the fridge after
                           paying bill and getting diapers and formula. We have
                           been living paycheck to paycheck....at this point,
                           things are stretching REAL thin. Because of this, we
                           are emotionally, mentally, and physically falling apart. 
                           All we want is a Christmas for our 3 lil ones....that 
                           would be my Christmas miracle! I will be praying and
                           hoping that a Christmas Angel will answer our prayers! 
                           Thank you for taking the time to read this and for
                           opening your hearts to complete strangers! God Bless
                           and Happy Holidays.

                           appreciate assistance with Christmas for our
                           three children, 11, 10, and 2 years old.  We 
                           have stumbled upon troubled times in the 
                           last few months.  We just cannot bare the 
                           thought of not having Christmas for our kids.
                           We would certainly welcome gift cards. :)

                           his first tour, he's a great man and
                           always puts my son and I before himself,
                           all that he wanted when he got back (about 
                           a month ago) was to get home for 
                           thanksgiving, we are in texas, home is
                           NY, unfortunately we wont be able to get
                           home for thanksgiving but I've been doing 
                           odd jobs and baby sitting trying to save 
                           up the money to drive home for christmas,
                           but with gas and how much it will cost to
                           get up there and back down I just wont have
                           made enough in time. If anyone can help us 
                           out with maybe gas cards I would appreciate
                           it so much my husband hasn't seen his family
                           in almost two years it would mean the world 
                           to him. Thank you.

                           after eight years of service. It took my 
                           three full months to find a job, but I 
                           was recently hired to the University of

                           not be getting very many paychecks between 
                           now and Christmas I fear that my kids will 
                           not have a Christmas this year. Can you 
                           please point me in the right direction to 
                           get some assistance this year? My wife and
                           I live in Clay county (Keystone Heights) 
                           and we have a five year old daughter and a
                           two year old son. (Savanna and Syler)

                           I never thought it could get this bad and 
                           I am very thankful for anything you can do

                           Hello we are a family of 5 at Fort Stewart GA.
                           My husband is a SSG in the army. We had 
                           Christmas all planned out. We thought we had
                           been looking for a house to help with finances. 
                           Since living on post was just cutting into our
                           pockets we had no clue we would find something
                           so fast but we did. With the money we have to 
                           put down and the moving day the week of Christmas
                           we now have no money to get our kids anything. 
                           We have two sons age 10 and 2 and a daughter age 7.
                           We have never been the type to ask for help but at
                           this point what else can we do.  We thought last year
                           when he deployed all would be great from there but 
                           one thing after another just seems to knock us back a
                           few feet. So any help we can get will be greatly 
                           appreciated. Thanks in advance

                           wheel chair "Tricare wont get us one" was used to move

                           it all  But all I am asking for is that my children have warm
                           clothing and a toy or two and a new or used electric wheel 
                           chair so I can get around without my children having to push
                           me if we lose the van well its meant to be but I do not want 
                           my children to suffer. they are wonderful girls Toni~Anna is 
                           11 and Sarah is 17 they tell me everyday that things will work
                           out but I don't see how when I owe 2000 on van and I still 
                           have to pay for hearing aids for Sarah I am so scared please
                           if you don't mind find someone who can help..

                           Hello, I am Amanda.  We are a military family with
                           four beautiful children currently stationed in North 
                           Carolina.  We would love to be able to give our 
                           children a wonderful Christmas with some gifts, a 
                           Christmas dinner, and time to relax and enjoy the 
                           holiday.  We have two daughters, 11 and 7, and two 
                           sons, 6 and 4.  They all are in need of winter clothes, 
                           shoes,  and coats. 
                                       
                           We struggle each year around birthdays and holidays 
                           to give to our children.  We would love for our 
                           children to wake up Christmas morning to see that 
                           Santa came to bring them a gift! Thank you for your 
                           help.  We wish you all a Merry Christmas and God
                           bless!  Amanda Camp Lejuene, North Carolina

                           I have been out of my home for about 18
                           months now due to water damage back in 
                           July of last year, we are currently in 
                           litigation with the home owner upstairs 
                           who is a retired san Diego police officer.
                           Who is refusing to pay for the damages. 
                           I had to file chapter 13 yesterday just 
                           to keep my home and my family together.
                           I am now completely broke with zero 
                           dollars in bank an living pay check to 
                           pay check. All because I tried to save 
                           my home and give my family a roof over 
                           their head. By paying a mortgage and rent
                           I depleted my savings. Now we will have 
                           to move back into our condo that has no 
                           bathroom, kitchen and half a bedroom due
                           to the damages. I cant do it alone and I
                           need help and materials to give my family
                           a home. Please help me rebuild and save 
                           my home

                                                              CHRISTMAS NEEDS
                                                              
                           I am writing to you for information about your program.
                           My husband, SSG. William Wallace is a 15 year veteran 
                           of the U.S. Army. He has served in Iraq, and two tours in 
                           Korea. He is a wonderful husband and an even better soldier
                           who I am proud to have in my life. I never saw myself 
                           asking for help but I have no choice.
 
                           We have 5 children ages 13- Drake,10- Tanner,8- Christian,
                           6- Mackenzie, and 3- Shelby. I was wondering if your 
                           organization would be able to refer me to someone who
                           can help us provide Christmas for our kids. We are stationed 
                           at Ft. Knox in Kentucky and although I have a college degree
                           I have been unable to find a job anywhere... I am either too
                           qualified or there is just nothing available. 
                                       
                           My husband serves his country with pride but we can barely 
                           make ends meet with his pay only. He is very proud and private 
                           about our financial situation.  But I cannot let this year come 
                           and have to explain to our kids they will get nothing. As many
                           military families are finding out the economy is just as bad for 
                           us as it is for civilians. We are not financially messy  this just
                           happens I guess. If you can give me any guidance on this matter 
                           I would greatly appreciate it. 
 
                           Your organization is a wonderful thing and I hope one day we
                           can help you too.
 
                           Sincerely,
                           Tara Wallace
