Christmas Gifts for the needy

This is the third year we have used GoFundme to ask for donations to purchase Christmas Gifts for some of the children at Maria's school. However, we have actually been doing this for many years. I know these families well and we ask the children to make out thier Christmas list to Santa Clause. #1 item on thier list each year is shoes, not toys! Last year we purchased about 30 pairs of shoes for these children but made sure they also received a toy or two. We gave away eight  skateboards, three bikes, and countless pairs of jeans and shirts. We would like to get the funding completed by Thanksgiving if possible so we can take advantage of the Black Friday Sales. As always, we are grateful for anything you can give. Won't you please help? 

For those folks that are local here in the OC, you will be invited over to our house on a day close to Christmas for a little wine tasting to say thanks.
