Calling All Angels | Frosty Family Wish List

This single mother moved from Africa to give her two children a better future, pouring nearly all of her income into rent and essential therapies. Fulfilling their Christmas wish list would bring joy they rarely get to experience and remind them that they are cared for during a season that often feels out of reach. The toy drive offers a chance to bring joy, relief, and hope to a family facing an incredibly challenging year. Angels of Care has partnered with Especially Needed to fulfill their holiday wish list, and every gift you give reminds them that their community is standing beside them.

She arrived in the United States last year with nothing but determination and hope. As a single mother of two, she had crossed an ocean from Africa in search of better educational opportunities and therapies for her children, especially her youngest, who needs special education support. Every decision she makes revolves around giving them the chance at a brighter future.

Life here has brought new possibilities, but it has also brought steep challenges. Most of her income goes toward rent and the therapy services her child depends on. By the time those essentials are covered, there is very little left for anything extra. Birthdays come quietly. Christmas is often something she has to set aside in order to keep her children cared for.

Still, her children remain joyful and humble. They never ask for much. They simply hope for a Christmas morning filled with a little magic, the kind so many families take for granted.

This year, through the Calling All Angels Toy Drive, there is a chance to help make that magic real. Fulfilling their wish list means more than giving gifts. It tells this mother she is not alone. It lets her children feel seen, valued, and celebrated. And it brings light to a family that has worked incredibly hard just to stay afloat.

One small gift can turn this Christmas into a memory they will carry for the rest of their lives.
