GRANT A CHRISTMAS HOPE

Well, I never thought I would be in the position I am in. Last year my wife left our family and we are down to one income. I have three children. A girl and two boys. My daughter is 16, my oldest son is 17 and my youngest son is 10. They are good young people. I would love to give them the world. I would love to give them their family back. My children know what the true meaning of Christmas is and that it is about Jesus! They love to give and I just would like to be able to get them a few things for Christmas this year. They never ask for much, but they do well in school and are doing best considering our situation. This time next year I pray I am in the situation to be able to give to others. We will be blessed and thankful for anything God allows to come into our home in this season. God bless!

I’m asking for a Christmas gift for my mom this year. For years, she has selflessly cared for my ailing father, and just recently, she welcomed her grandson and his wife into their home, despite not having the resources to do so. Both she and my father are on a fixed income and have recently lost their healthcare coverage, which also means she no longer has access to the home health aide who helped relieve some of the burden of caring for my father. This Christmas, my deepest hope is that she experiences the love and care of God in a powerful way, as she has given so much to others despite her own struggles.

Hello my name is Angela I'm writing on behalf of my client Carlita. I'm a healthcare provider this young lady is in need of a miracle for Christmas this year. Her health is not good and she's not able to work because of her health. She's got three boys that she loves and adores. She's only 39 years old she's a very very sweet person with a very kind heart and I just want to let her know miracles do happen and there are people out there who actually care and love and support families in need. I've been listening to Hope 100.7 for 3 years and I have found such hope in the music that is played and I just want to help this family. She's a very bad diabetic and she's very frail but it's getting a little bit better.

About 2 years ago my life was turned upside down. My husband was arrested and sent to prison for 15yrs for sexually assaulting our 3yr old daughter. A year later I lost my job unexpectedly. I was able to get some assistance for a few months. I found a new amazing part time job teaching religious education to 1st and 2nd graders. Since then I have lost all assistance. The government says I make too much in a week. I have 3 kids who have lost a role model in their life. We have made cut after cut and still am struggling. This year has been rough dealing with divorce, loss, and trying to be strong for my kids. They are my everything. Anything will be greatly appreciated and will provide a little extra for my kids.

Hi my name is Ben. I'm a single dad and full time caregiver including homeschooling for an autistic 8-year-old boy. His mom unfortunately is not in the picture and we have no immediate family, my mom dad and sister all died premature deaths. We are very blessed even though we don't have much, God always makes sure we have exactly what we need. But when it comes to holidays things are very short, because the only income right now is his Social Security which does cover rent and bills. I really have never asked for much but he would be so happy to get a bike for Christmas with training wheels and maybe just a few gifts to put under the tree if possible. He likes everything that a typical 8-year-old boy likes. I do just have to say he is the biggest hope 100.7 fan that there probably is. He turns on Hope on the radio in the kitchen when he gets up where we have homeschool and it doesn't go off till we get ready for dinner! He truly loves you guys and loves God. Hopefully there's someone out there that can help bring him some Christmas cheer. God bless and thank you so much!

Hello, I have a 9 year old girl that has been through some trying times. Her dad and I divorced and he has discarded our daughter. Doesn’t pay support or otherwise be present in her life. After that our family home was destroyed. We have lost all we had. Through the Lord's grace we got enough to buy a 20 yr old motor home to live in. Christmas last year I made it what it could be in a motor home. I have worked to save and was blessed with gaining an apartment for my sweet princess. However I am a caregiver and work what I can due to being a single mom, it is just barley enough to make bills each month. So at this point not even a tree is in the budget. Thank you for listening. To my prayers for my princess.

My name is Jeremy, I'm a single father of my 14 year old son. My parents have custody of him, while I live with them and help take care of my son and aging parents. My dad is 73, mom 70. When we first got my son a few years ago, I had my parents take custody because I was on drugs and in and out of jail. I wanted him to be taken care of if I wasn't there for him. I got sober about two years ago. I have a job. The company I was working at sold the company, gave all the employees 6 days and shut down. That was back in March. I haven't been able to find another job yet, I've worked a few different temp jobs, but have yet to find steady employment. My parents have always helped people. They helped my aunt and uncle with a food pantry and homeless ministry for about 18 years. Plus, anyone around the neighborhood that needs food they still try to help out. We go to church in Germantown. I really need some help for Christmas for my son and parents. I'm trying my best, but nothing seems to be going right for me. Thank you for your consideration.

Our house is being remodeled due to some unforseen circumstances and during the remodel, the basement flooded and it ruined the furnace and water heater and water softener.
My husband works 12 hour days and drives and hour to and from work each way and when he comes home from work, he puts in atleast another 4 hours working on the house and works every day he is off on the house. I am a stay at home mom to a 2 year old that has some developmental disabilities and we have have 2 kids in school and one of them have mental disabilities.
We have been living in a small trailer that the roof leaks in for a year while our house gets ready. It would be so nice to be able to surprise my kids with a warm house in a warm bed for Christmas.
I'm just hoping to get a furnace for our home so my kids don't have to worry about leaks and being cold this winter.

She is a single mom of two kids a boy 10 and a girl 14 she has no job and no way to provide Christmas for her kids. Anything that would help her provide give a warm and cheerful Christmas for her children would be greatly appreciated to her and her kids.
