We read Scott Maxwell’s article in the Orlando Sentinel about a wonderful charity that had collected gifts and items for the needy this holiday season … and were robbed!

We want to help spread the word and help them build up their inventory again!

PLEASE join One Heart for Women and Children in making a difference this holiday season by providing a gift for a less fortunate child. Last year they provided gifts for over 500 children and teens, which brought great joy. This year the need has doubled.

Here are some of the items they are requesting:

·       Toys for all ages

·      Gift cards for Target and Wal-Mart

·       Presents for teens

·       Soccer balls and basketballs

·       Wallets for boys and girls

·       Bikes or skateboards

If you’d like to donate, help to distribute donations or otherwise volunteer as an individual or group, e-mail Stephanie Bowman (she’s the lovely woman in the photo) at stephanie@oneheartforwomenandchildren.org or call 321-299-4594.  (Donations are tax-deductible.)
