Hello,
I am contacting you on behalf of my three children (ages 14-girl, 10-boy, and 4-girl) who I fear will not have a Christmas this year (filled with the presents they deserve) due to the fact I was laid of in November due to lack of work with my employer. I am hoping your organization may be able to help me-or should I say my kids- or refer me to programs that can, as any help I am able to receive from friends/family must go straight to providing for the necessities for my family.
They are three great kids, and this is the first Christmas I have truly struggled and am worried that they will feel the impact of my situation-which I have tried so hard to avoid thus far. I am steadily searching for work, but all of the seasonal jobs had been basically filled when I was laid off and anything permanent appears to be put on hold until after the holidays have passed. I know it is late in the season but I have been desperately trying to avoid having to ask for help as it feels good to give my kids the extras I want them to have because they deserve gifts of reward for being the best three children a mom could ask to have.
If your organization is unable to help it would be much appreciated if you could forward my info on to an organization that may be able to, or provide me with the contact info for such organizations.
My name is Amy Brewer and you can contact me via email or via my home phone (828-2935). I look forward to hearing from you in the nearest future.
Thanks again for your time and assistance-
Amy
