Help us make this winter season the best one yet for our military families!
We are a family of two that has recently become a family of three by permanent guardianship of my niece.
We wish for gift cards to clothing stores, the Exchange, or Amazon would greatly help us with clothing, school needs, and furnishings for her space as we continue to build a new life together.
A brand new military family looking for girl size 18 months clothes, shoes toddler 5, Size 5 diapers, Sock or toys.
A family trip home this Christmas to Illinois.
We are also having a baby girl due in March 2026 we really need baby supplies and car seat. Baby soap, butt creams, boon bottles, breast feeding pillow/supplies.
We are wishing for little family trip before an upcoming deployment. Even if it’s just driving a couple hours away to visit another part of New Jersey for a few days.
We could always use more clothes for our boys, boy size 3t and boy size 12 months. 3 y/o Boy loves anything with wheels, and has an obsession with monster trucks. 1 y/o Boy is the drooliest baby (with no teeth yet) and loves all teethers! Me and my husband just want to make Christmas as memorable as we can for them, they’re the best boys and deserve the world. We’d be absolutely grateful for anything.
A gas gift card would ease a big part of that stress and help ensure we can get to appointments, grocery trips, and everything our family needs without worrying about whether we have enough fuel to get through the week. It could also give us the ability to drive and see family during the week of Christmas!
It began when we heard a thunk while accelerating from a stop sign, we were concerned but figured it wasn't too much to worry about; but it continued to happen. We finally saved the money for a diagnostic to find out what the problem is and we were informed that it is 2 broken engine mounts and the other mount has stress fractures and could break at any time. This is the only mode of transportation we have that supports a car seat. Our wish is to have the vehicle repaired. We were given an estimate that it would cost at least $1k in parts and labor but the shop couldn't be certain until they start the work. We haven't been able to save enough and are driving as cautiously as possible but it's a matter of time until it gets worse. I am scheduled to deploy soon and worry about my family getting around safely while I am gone. With it being the holidays it is making it even more challenging to save and provide any gifts for our children as well.
This will be the first Christmas I get with my 3 amazing kiddos. Two years ago I was deployed, and last year I wasn't able to be with them. This is the 1st Christmas where I get to have my kids. Finances have been really hard trying to make this happen for them and I just want to give them the great Christmas they deserve since they haven't had one for a few years.
Would just like some things for the kids to wake up to and enjoy this holiday season. Boy age 11, and girls age 8 and 6. My son wants a hoverboard. Just anything helps even if just some stuff to fill their stockings.
My husband is a E3 and we have two children. My family is in Texas and it’s really hard away from support and I’m struggling financially.
4t boys winter clothes and Christmas gifts for a 3 year old like Dinosaurs or sea animals.
This winter, I’m really hoping for support with new tires for our family truck or toys for our children. New tires would make a huge difference in keeping our family safe, especially with my husband being active-duty and us constantly on the go with four kids. And any toys or gifts for the kids would help bring joy to their holidays and ease some of the financial pressure we’re facing. Either type of support would mean so much to our military family this season.
