Guardian Ad Litem collecting toys for foster children

There are hundreds of children who have no family to be with this Christmas, and no gifts.

The Guardian Ad Litem Foundation helps provide for children in the foster care system, and this year, more children are in need of gifts for Christmas due to the pandemic.

“Lots of these children come into care with nothing else but the clothes on their back,” said GAL volunteer Pam Anderson. “So some of them would receive nothing for Christmas, which would be so sad.”

Now you can go online and directly buy gifts requested by these hundreds of children, or call (239) 533-1435. The deadline to donate is Dec. 15.
