Help this family with a home

Donation protected
Hey guys. I try to give as often as possible, but I never want to be that guy who posts my good deeds on fb. But I wanted to share this with you because this family needs help. I was leaving Starbucks on my way to the gym when I saw this family with these tiny kids walking down March lane. Now mind you, it's about 35 degrees outside I'm driving in my car with seat warmers STILL cold, so I knew it was freezing for those poor babies. My heart instantly sank and I thought I have to do something. So I ran over to 7-11 and got some cash and thought I'll give them a little money, that should help some. When I finally caught up to them and asked the gentleman to come to my car, I could see the pain in his eyes. The kids were freezing, and they just came out of Starbucks with one coffee to keep him and his wife warm. I asked them if they needed a place to stay, his response was "yes ma'am". I said would you like to stay at this hotel right next door (extended stay). He said yes ma'am. So I went and paid for several nights for them to stay. After getting them checked in, I spoke with them about their situation and gave them a little more cash then I originally planned to. Told him to get his children something to eat and asked if they needed clothes or anything. He emphatically said yes! I said how about Christmas? When I mentioned Christmas, The kids eyes lit up (I wanted to cry). I said well, I'm gonna take care of you for Christmas. So I asked if I could take a picture of the kids so I can get my friends to help with their needs. So here they are...

The mother works at McDonald's, and I spoke with her manager, she is an exceptionally hard worker. She has been known to take the bus from Stockton to Tracy to drop the kids off at the babysitter after taking the bus to drop the older kids off at school all before catching the bus to her job at McDonald's in Stockton. That's a 4 1/2 hour trip before she even gets to work. She tries very hard, just fell on hard times. 

Anything you can give towards this families situation, be it school uniforms for the girls (size 8) or underwear, pull-ups, and other necessities it would be appreciated.

All monies collected will go only towards purchasing items for the family and help with housing.
