A single mother of three is looking for help this holiday season. The mother is in a difficult situation financially and is hoping her kids can wake up to presents on Christmas morning.
“I am asking if you can please help me give my kids a good Christmas,” the mother wrote in a letter to Item Santa.
The mother is asking our readers for assistance to provide Christmas gifts for her three children.
“I am looking for help to give my kids clothes, shoes, toys, games,” she wrote, “so my kids can wake up on Christmas morning with a smile on their faces and see there really is a Santa.”
