Happy Homes

Saturday December 23rd, we
were trying to help these
families make some kind of
Christmas.
Mothers cried when they
received checks to buy fruit,
candy, clothing and toys for
their children. Many of them
used part of the money to
pay the rent or to pay utility
bills. To even have lights
on and gas to cook with made
some people happy for
Christmas
What a great feeling of
independence and pride it
gave these people to be able
to buy on their own instead
of getting some worn out toys
or worn out clothing or a bas
ket. These things are
appreciated by those who
have nothing and we do not

will never forget your Helping Hand at Christmas of 1961

The Atlanta Inquirer
want to belittle this type of
giving. This type of giving
however, does not always
meet the exact need.
Family #1; A lone mother
with a two weeks old baby
and four other children. She
needs other help but at least
you gave the children a happy
Christmas.
Family #2: A mother and
father and five children. The
father was just out of pri
son and had not had sufii
cient time to establish
himself.
Family #3; Both parents
are ill. There are nine
children. Provisions for food
were so inadequate that one
child slips out of bed at
night and goes to the kitchen
in order to search for food
to satisfy his hunger.
Families #4 & 5 had
fathers who tried to work but
because of emotional and
physical illnesses beyond
their control they could not
work. In the two families
there are eleven children
and one mother is expecting.
One mother who was de
serted by her husband
several years ago and who
works diligently to provide
a home for her children
was unable to work because
of illness. She did not get
paid while she was sick and
was unable to buy anything
for her children for
Christmas.
We could go on and on but
