I am a single mother of two, a girl that is 16 and a boy that is 13. I work on weekends, but I don't make enough, I go to school, and my car is getting ready to break down. I don't care about myself, but I want my kids to be able to get up on Christmas with something instead of nothing. I know a lot of people help others with young kids, but mine are not so young. Their dads can't even help me out with Christmas. I would really appreciate the help. I know I work, but I just don't bring home enough to get presents, I can't afford any presents for my kids and I would love to see them open presents on Christmas morning, I have been stressing over this for a while now and I really need the help. If you could help, please let me know, Christmas is right around the corner and I don't know what to do about it. My husband and I are getting a divorce, so I want them to have something, I hope I'm not too late. God Bless and Happy Holiday's too everyone.

My husband died unexpectedly on Nov. 25th, 2008. I have files for disability 2 months ago, but as you know that could take years. I want to ensure my children get a cift for christmas. Thank you.
