Two years ago I started a program called Project DUFF where I adopt different families for the holidays and provide gifts and food. Project DUFF is back again this year and 2 families are being helped.
The first family is a father with a 12-year old daughter (there are actually 4 children, but the other children are already accounted for). The father works outside using his hands (actual job not provided) and is the sole provider for the whole family.
The second family is a mother with a 16-year old son. The mother is not able to work because she cares full-time for her son, who is wheelchair bound with cerebral palsy.
Both of these families haven’t had a real Christmas for years. They are barely making ends meet and need help to provide a good holiday this year.
If you are interested in helping these families have a normal holiday season, please let me know. I have a short list of items that have been requested for each person (parents and children) and I plan on helping these families extensively. If you would prefer, you can make monetary donations (checks made payable to “Project DUFF”). All money that is collected gets turned right around and used to buy gifts (including gift cards which I am trying to purchase this year for clothing). Every little bit helps and will help these families enjoy the holiday season the right way.
Please help make the holidays memorable for those who are unable to provide for themselves.
