Family of Four
We have helped this family for the last three years. They live in a tiny apartment with just the bare necessities. Before we helped them, they had no furniture except a small table and one mattress that the four of them shared. The boys now have bunk beds and the family has a sofa. This year, we asked Mom to have the boys write letters to Santa so we could see what they truly wanted. This family has no health care benefits and Mom suffers from a chronic disease that requires expensive medication.
