The Wesley House Community Center is making children in the foster care system have a Christmas this year. They are asking people in the community to help by sponsoring a child in their Christmas for Kids program.

Every year the Wesley House Community Center reaches out to the community in hopes that they will participate in their "Christmas for Kids" program. The program is a way to make sure children in the foster care system wakes up to presents on Christmas morning.
“I think especially for these children who are in foster care, they may be displaced from their homes so any toys they’ve had, they like to play with, they may not have”, said Executive Director, David Schultz. “For these children who are displaced there are other challenges in their lives so to be graced with a gift they would like to have is very meaningful for those.”
So far, the Wesley House has only gotten twenty-five sponsors, they are looking for seventy-five more to sponsor a child this holiday season. When you become a sponsor you’re give a shopping list, the age and gender of the child.
“We especially like these kids to all be adopted because their situation is probably more intense than the average. These are children who have been displaced, these are children who are not home necessarily with their families, not with mom and dad. They are in a foster scenario. They’ve encountered some type of trauma in their lives. To be able to provide Christmas gifts for them can hopefully help them deal a little better with the trauma they’ve encountered.”
