Our Mission

Our mission is to help families in need with year round and holiday gifts, so they know someone is caring and thinking of them in thier time of need. They may be a victim of a natural disaster such as Hurricane Katrina and Rita, earthquakes or any natural disaster. They may be a family in crisis by death or disease such as cancer, or family crisis

The holidays are hard for most and unbearable for others. Lets help change that by sending your care package today to your adoptive family.
