HOLIDAY TIP: GIVE A GIFT IN SOMEONE'S NAME
You can start by contacting Olive Crest, the organization that supports abused and at-risk children and families.
Buy a specific gift for a specific child: Olive Crest can provide its kids’ wish lists, so that your donation can be targeted to particular children. They even offer individual wish slips bearing the first name, age and wish of each child, making the experience more personal for everyone involved. For example, maybe your dad is a baseball fan, and 10-year-old Johnny from Olive Crest wants a glove for Christmas. What a perfect match! olivecrest.org
