As the holidays approach you cannot help but notice the excitement in every child’s eyes. Whether you are watching TV, walking through the malls or shopping in the stores it is all around you, the decorations, the holiday music, Santa Claus how can you not get caught up in the holiday spirit.
But what you do not see are the eyes of the children who have just been told that Santa won’t be coming this year or the parents who are struggling to make ends meet and are worried that they may not be able to put gifts under the tree for their children.
This is why great charities like the “Toys for Tots” program are so important. The United States Marine Corp created this program with a mission “to deliver a new toy at Christmas, giving a message of hope to the less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens and to help them experience the joy of Christmas as well as play an active role in the development of one of our nation’s most valuable resources….our children”.
Although the United States Marine Corp and their volunteers do a terrific job they cannot do it alone. This is why it is so important for people to help in any way they can.
A small gift or volunteering a couple of hours of your time will help this wonderful charity and most importantly put a smile on a young child’s face Christmas morning.
