13 Days Until Christmas!

Hi Friends,

This week we heard a story about how the kindness of others created a lasting impression decades later in the life of one of our HSP friends. After toys were dropped off the employee shared with Julia and I that she organizes the company toy drive every year and she does this because when she was a child her family received toys from a similar organization as HSP. 

When she was young, her father was a victim of a violent crime and he was unable to work for nine months. That Christmas, she was eight years old, middle sister was five and little brother was four. This organization gave them toys which made for a very memorable Christmas. She is determined to help children in any way she can, so other children can be given the gift of a wonderful Christmas just as she, her brother, sister, mom and dad enjoyed many years ago. Now you have the chance to bring joy and forever change a life.

Harry Sailer Jr. is matching 100% of all donations up to $10,000.

I do believe that our acts of generosity and the compassion we bestow towards others can make a seismic shift in the lives of those around us. This conversation is a beautiful example of the difference one loving act can make. 

With only 13 days until Christmas, you have the chance to make your own miracles happen in the lives of children and their families. 

Yours in Love and Service, 
 
Kristin Senne
Executive Director
