It’s that time of year again, and I’m truly in need of your support. Normally, by early November, I’m out and about shopping for toys and begging you guys for toy donations. But after breaking my ankle, I’ve been silent, torn between moving forward with the toy giveaway or canceling it altogether. Being off work and without my usual resources, I honestly don't know how I can pull it off. However, after seeing some of the children I cross it brought tears to my eyes when they told me how much they missed me and asked if I would still be hosting my Christmas Giveaway. I told them I wasn’t sure. My daughter Asia noticed how sad the children looked and asked if I am sure we can’t do the giveaway? I didn’t have an answer. Then I received a text from a parent that touched my heart, and it gave me the push I needed to hopefully with your help bring a smile to a child or family this holiday season. I’m asking those of you that are able, to please be a blessing and donate a toy to Angela’s Passionate Heart to be distributed on December 19th. Your support will mean so much.
I will be accepting toy donations on November 29th at the Black Cat Lounge,(thank you for your support) from 2pm-8pm or you can mail a toy to:
Angela Thompson
P.O. Box 378264
Chicago 60637
Monetary donations can be sent via Zelle to [email protected].
Thank you all in advance. Your generosity helps me to keep this tradition alive❤️
