Children get so excited about the toys there are expecting for Christmas. It is sad that many will not get one toy this year, because their mom or dad lost their job or can not afford it.. I can still remember my childhood Christmas', when under the tree overflowed with toy and gift.
There are many organizations that try to help put joy, in the lives of children who otherwise would not get toys for Christmas. It is so good to know that people understand and care. Here is a list of a few organizations that help children. Pass the information to someone else.
