Daphne's Gift

Daphne's Gift Helping Families or groups in need during the Christmas Season. My mother instilled in my sisters' and I helping others and it started at a young age.

For a few years we have been trying to give back and I felt the need more so after my mom died. Each fall, I try to help out an organization or family in need, asking for all my fellow friends and family to join forces to make someone's Christmas better because of other's generosity. I wanted a place for it to be organized since this seems to be something that will be continuing for years to come.

It started as blessing bags for a shelter and has morphed to that and more, depending on the year and who is needing our help. I hope you find it in your heart to give a little each year, whether it is Christmas time or not. God has given us one life to live and we need to make the most of it. No one's heart grows more, than those serving God and others.

πŸŽ„We took advantage of Black Friday to maximize your generous donations! Jacqie, Shelby and Shelby's oldest daughter had so much fun shopping! We got the list for the single woman moving out of Rachel's Light taken care of and were able to drop off the first load of donations. MORE TO COME!

🌟Here is the message we received from the house director after dropping off:
"We really couldn't keep our doors open without our donors! It takes a village to do this! We need our donors to believe in our guests and our organization like we do to be able to keep doing what we're doing.. Our single woman who you guys helped was in tears! Thank you so much! "
