Saw this this morning and just couldn't pass it up. We love that mothers actually get to choose and wrap gifts for their children. You can support The Family Place through its Adopt-the-Shelter program and help stock the Safe House Holiday Store. Brighten the lives of family violence survivors by purchasing new toys, clothing, and gifts from their wish lists. Mothers staying at the Safe House get to choose and wrap gifts for their little ones—and select something special for themselves. Don’t have time to shop? Make a donation and The Family Place will do the shopping in your name. Simply email Karen at kadegraffenreid@familyplace.org or call 214-443-7714 to participate.
