EHHF Christmas 2012 Gift Giveaway took place on December 23rd 2012 in the back of our donation center at Vanowen Street in North Hollywood.
All guests were warmly greeted and no one walked away empty-handed. Struggling single parents were given warm blankets, sweaters, kitchen and hygiene products while children received – what else? – toys. Good time was had by all!
In addition, Enlightened Helping Hand Foundation had reports about several single parent families dealing with financial hardship in Van Nuys area. We’ve made sure that EHHF representatives delivered Christmas gifts to them as well.
Times are tough for many. Those who work the hardest – single parents! – but are currently unemployed desperately need help. EHHF knows that we didn’t solve their problems, but we know for a fact that many single parent families and their children are having (or if you’ll read it after Holidays – have had) a little break from the stress of their financial worries and a little warmer Christmas complete with gifts….
Our Christmas 2012 Gift Giveaway is over, requests for help however continue pouring in. Disadvantaged single parents are requesting money to pay rent and food for their kids’ next meal. Christmas is warm and fuzzy and EHHF shared the Spirit of Christmas, but the plight of disadvantaged single parent families continues….
