Do you know of a Westchester County family that needs some financial assistance this holiday season? Maybe they can't afford any toys for the kids. Can't pay their heating bill? Need some food money?

I don't want to go thru the churches, because I don't want the church to take any of the money. I want to help a family directly.

Please let me know if you know of anyone that you know or a good way to find someone who needs a helping hand. I don't have a lot, but would like to reach out to someone this year.

I will think about it some, but I needed to reach out to you to tell you what a wonderful person you must be and A wonderful thing you are doing..
I am sure there are many people that could use a helping hand..

I appreciate you reaching out. I must say that I am terribly disapointed in the response (or lack of) I waited a few days and went on line and donated a whole bunch of cash for kids with parents in prison. I have made a donation and am no longer looking.

If anyone else wants to follow suit, I donated to Angel Tree. They will get the gifts to the kids and the gift will say it is from their parent who is in prison. This way the kid gets an Xmas and it also leaves the kid with a warm feeling that it came from their parent.

Thanks for your kind words.
Tom
