I am currently working in Panama City, FL and a local radio station is doing a fundraiser to collect money and toys to give to underprivileged children in the local community. It is a program that is benefiting Toys For Tots.
A couple employees from the radio station are living on top of a school bus for 2 weeks until the fundraiser is over (Dec 16th) or when their goal of 10,000 toys is met.
I have been listening to this station for about a week now and today I drove by as I was running some errands for work. I decided to run into the Walmart across the street and purchase 3 toys for the fundraiser. When I dropped them off, the DJ’s noticed that my truck said the company I work for was out of Midland, TX and were pleased that a non-local was donating to children of Bay County (little did they know that I’m Canadian). As I was leaving, they told me that God loves me – which was very reassuring.
Anyways, I hope I helped make some kids smile this Christmas.
