Help provide gifts for foster kids!

Update 12/20: After we started buying one xbox, 4 tablets, one piece drum set, we realized an extra $1,000 wasn't enough. I've changed the goal to $11,000 for the final time! We have the weekend to finish these last 15 kids!
UPDATE 12/20 There were about 15 kids who were missed somehow!! We are looking to buy for those kids ASAP. I increased the goal to $10,000 to accomodate!!
For a 5th year in a row, Keller Williams Metro Atlanta will be organizing a present drive for DeKalb County Foster Kids. Last year we sponsored 150 kids!
This year we are sponsoring 337 kids!!!! We have already received wish lists for about 250 of those kids and have already assigned 140 of those kids to gift sponsors.
However, many kids in foster care wish for something substantial like a playstation, Xbox, laptop, tablet or just gift cards. Considering everything these kids go through in foster care, the very least we can do is surprise them with this nice gift.
Right now I have 34 kids with a $200 gift need and 31 kids with just a gift card request, and I'd like to be able to offer them at least a $100 gift card. These are also mostly teenagers and they are very close to leaving the foster system and building their life as an adult. Please help me offer these kids an opportunity through these gifts.
Please donate whatever you can, it will all help us provide for these kids!!! Every dollar helps :)
