NJ-2026-SG-0010 · Dover, NJ

Tears well-up in my eyes as I write this, and while I am rarely at a loss for words, I can't seem to find the words to accurately express my gratitude. The children in our family have suffered separation from their parents, poverty, neglect, and emotional abuse. While I strive to give them all the love I have and share all my resources, the financial resources are limited. Knowing that your organization exists to ease the stress and financial burdens on families like ours fills my heart with gratitude and optimism. Thank you.

To our sponsor:

May shopping for our family be joyful for you. May the kindness you share with us warm your spirit and your heart. May you always receive triple what you give. We will pay it forward in smiles, in kindness, and when we are able, in gifts for others to enjoy. Thank you so so much. Your sponsorship means the world for our family.
