Christmas is for Kids 2020: Thank You

All of the children on the 2020 Christmas is for Kids list have been taken care of. Thank you for your generosity and helping to make Christmas a special time of year for everyone in our community.

Thank You!

 

It’s Christmas is for Kids time!

Once again, we’re teaming up to make wishes come true for children in our community who will spend the holiday season in foster care.

Because of the pandemic, we’ve scaled down the celebration. No rock star party, of course. And this year, rather than three gifts, every kiddo will receive one gift from our Christmas is for Kids family.

The wishes are up. You can see the list here Pick a child’s wish, go shopping and we’ll take care of the rest. You can even shop online and have it shipped directly to us at 1190 Patton Avenue. We ask that all gifts be dropped off before Wednesday December 9th so we have enough time to sort and distribute them to the foster care agencies and these young folks get their wishes on Christmas day!

Don’t want to shop but want to help out? We’ll use your donations to grant wishes for any kids who are not sponsored. Please make checks payable to Eblen Charities and on the memo line, please put Christmas is for Kids. Checks can be mailed to us at 1190 Patton Avenue.

Thank you for continuing the tradition of making sure children in foster care know they are loved and remembered.

Love,
Tammy & Kipper
