The goodie bags are almost ready to be delivered, Santa and his helpers are suiting up, and there’s still time for you to give the gift of holiday magic! We set a goal of $500 and YOU MADE IT HAPPEN!! We know that these are still very tough times for a lot of us – and we are SO thankful for everyone that liked, donated, and helped to spread the word about this giveaway.
