My good friends at ChildSafe reached out for help with their annual HALO Stocking Gift Drive. ChildSafe serves families and children traumatized by child abuse and neglect. Always ready to assist a good cause, I am passing on this information.
Of the more than 1,500 families served annually at ChildSafe, 67 percent live on an annual income of $15,000 or less. ChildSafe is asking for your help to provide joy and delight to the child victims and their families, who will not otherwise have a holiday experience.
ChildSafe HALO stuffed stockings help take some of the pressure off families who are struggling to survive the devastation of child sexual/physical abuse and neglect, along with financial struggles, so they can focus on the restoration of their child’s dignity, hope and trust.
You can help by donating stockings stuffed with small items for girls, boys and teens like stuffed animals, socks, hygiene products, small toys, hats, scarves and more. Stocking should include a gift card as well. For a detailed list check ChildSafe Facebook page. Donations will be accepted now through Wednesday, Dec. 19, and can be dropped off at ChildSafe, 7130 West US Hwy 90, San Antonio.
Call 210-208-5795 or email Vanessa Rodriguez, Development & Marketing Coordinator, at: vanessarod@childsafe-sa.org for more information.
