Hi FMB Readers,
In years past, my boys have been blessed by the generosity of others at Christmas. They have received new clothes and toys from Salvation Army, Toys for Tots, or the Flagstaff Police Department. These presents have helped to put pretty packages under the tree when I didn’t have the extra money to play the role of Santa.
Now, I don’t mean any offense to the wonderful organizations in town – but sometimes the parents in these families get forgotten. My goal this year was to “Adopt A Family” for Christmas. I asked to be paired with a single mom of two children so that my boys and I could give back. I want to make sure that not only do her kids get some presents, but she also be blessed at Christmas.
If you want to give a donation or even Adopt A Family of your own, contact the local office of the Salvation Army. They are located at 507 N Humphreys St and their phone # is (928) 774-1403.
There are many organizations in town that provide gifts for families in Flagstaff. Salvation Army is just the organization I chose to partner with for my Christmas wish of helping another mom.

My boys and I stayed at Sharon Manor for two years when we started over in Flagstaff. The family will be so blessed by your generosity.
