Jimmy is 10 years old. Amanda is 6. Last year they began school with paper towels stuffed in the toes of their shoes. Their ill-fitting, faded clothing had tears and patches from years of use. They had no notebooks, no new pencils, and no Winnie-The- Pooh backpacks. In fact, they had nothing at all with which to start school. Thanks to the generosity of people like you, this year Jimmy and Amanda, and many more like them, have new socks, underwear, shoes, school supplies, and backpacks and are looking forward to Christmas for the first time they can remember. Because of the continued generosity of a caring community, the children of Clay County will have opportunities for education, support, and joyful Christmas -- all of which no child should be left without. You may never know their names, but they will carry thanks in their hearts for your kindness for the rest of their lives. He put a child in the middle of the room. Then, cradling the little one in his arms, he said, "Whoever embraces one of these children a I do,, embraces me and far more than me -- God who sent me." Mark 9:36-57
