Getting Involved And Making A Huge Difference In A Family's Life

By Neil Cervenka • December 29, 2019

Last year I worked patrol on Christmas Eve and I came across these two (and their 3 kids) who were living in a vehicle at a park.

A huge storm was rolling in and they needed a miracle. Letters To Santa Charity (LTS) came in like Santa himself.

With only a simple text to the board (Justin Crone, Aileen Crone, Betty Julian, Sargon Eddy, Megan Bruce, and Nick Bashaw), elves went to work.

Even though it was Christmas Eve, LTS worked - hard.

Two weeks in a hotel with toys for the kids followed by a rental house that donors completely furnished.

LTS stood by them since then and this year I stopped by and visited where she works full time to take a pic.

They are now off public assistance, cooking a turkey dinner and they a have a beautiful tree with gifts under it.

Last year the kids wondered how Santa would find them in a car at a park.

I guess Santa found a way.

Merry Christmas everyone.
