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.
