It will be another week or so before I find out the family info - I have asked for a family with more than one kid so we should be able to get some cool toys going.

Where does this family's name come from?   My sister inlaw know's of many families as she works for CLA Advocacy in Langley and her job is to help families in need.   She knows many, and can make sure the money is going to a family that really needs it and will appreciate it.


Alicia Devries   604-530-7344  She works Monday  to Thursday in the office, and on call for the rest of the week.  I can pm you her cell # if needed.

Alright I have our family information. We will be helping a single mother of 4 this year, ages are as follows:

1. 14 year old boy
2. 12 year old girl
3. 10 year old girl
4. 4 year old boy

Lets make this a special christmas for these kids and their mother - It doesn't matter how big or small your contribution is; it just matters that you have helped someone in need so please consider contributing.

A special thanks to those that have already volunteered time and money - I will be contacting you in the coming weeks to arrange everything.

Alright got more info on the family:

Kids:

Ken 14 Male - Wears a men's small, is into hockey
Kris 12 Male - Also a men's small and into hockey
Angel 10 Female - Wears a 11 or 12 (she's very tall and thin) - Wants to be a vet and loves animals
Jaiden 4 Male - size 4 or 5 loves trucks, trains the Hulk and Spiderman.

Angela, Mom - is a into bubble baths

All the kids would be into walkman's as they all enjoy music.

Please keep in mind if you are buying presents for the children it should be spread out amongst all 4 of them so try and post up or let me know what you are thinking so I can keep track of it all.

Delivery will be on December 17th (Saturday) we will be doing the shopping for the perishables on that morning at Superstore.
