Andea's Story:
My sons 5th grade class is going on an end of the year camping trip. He is so excited. But he brought the paper home saying he needs 60.00 for the trip along with a list of supplies he needs.
They had a fundraiser to help offset the cost but the jewerly and gifts they were selling were a little too much for us to buy.(they would get a percent of whatever they sold. So he did not make anything and now the 60.00 is due or he can not go. Plus he needs a sleeping bag.
Normally it would not be a big deal but my husband missed a week of work because he got bronchitis(i gave it too him:(((..)so we barely had enough to pay the mortgage and our electric. So now he is all upset because if we can not get the money then he can not go. This means so much to him. So I am looking for a hero to help us out. I am praying there is an angel out there some where that can grant my wish.
Thank You!!
Andrea
