The week after Thanksgiving, the Salvation Army, in Washington DC, Ward 7 and 8, was broken into. A lot of money and toys were taken. I live in a shelter nearby and this Salvation Army has given me clothing before.
The parents that were approved for the program were really worried about how they were going to provide for their families due to the large amount of money, and other things, that were taken. They thought they weren’t going to see a smile on their kids’ faces this year. And then the community came together and raised the money to replace the toys and other gifts. This saved Christmas for a lot of families who are relying on the Salvation Army.
I am just thanking God on the blessing that came through for Ward 7 and 8. And the blessing and the increase of money that was provided by different people to make sure that every parent that was approved for the program could see their kids smile.
Thank you and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my customers, friends, family and everyone else who works for Street Sense. Have a safe and happy new year.
I hope the Salvation Army continues to be blessed.
