My name is Tom & I am the cub master of a local cub scout pack. This morning I received a call from one of my boys to say thank you for our holiday party at last nights meeting. After talking to him it became clear the family was having a hard time financially. His mother called me shortly after I finished speaking with him to explaine some of the things we talked about. This single mother family has fallen on hard times this holiday & is on the brink of having their electricity disconneted. They have a very few presents for the children but are making the best of it. While this famiy did not call for help I offered my help & I hope that you can offer a hand as well. They are reaching out to local non profits & churches but with Christmas about a week away I feel like we, as a community, can come together to help.
Here, about a week before the holiday, I'm not asking you to dig deep, I'm just asking you donate the dollar or two that you would have spent today on coffee, a coke, or some fast food. Everything received here will go to helping with presents for the kids as well as helping out with the electric bill that is due. If even a quarter of my friends, blog readers, & family donate $1 we would still raise several hundred dollars.
I hope you can help out & I will, while keeping their info confedential, put out an update with how things go for this families Christmas.
