You Just Saved Christmas

Holy cow, you guys.

Sometimes you wonder whether or not a community is going to respond to a call to arms. Saving Christmas for 62 deserving kids is a big lift, folks.

YOU DID IT.

I’M NOT KIDDING, EITHER.

This isn’t one of those “we had it covered” kind of moments, either. Friday was a deadline for Stafford Junction.

Yet instead of making panicked phone calls today to prospective donors, poor Gail is wrapping presents through tears — all because you decided to make Christmas special for someone else.

Fredericksburg Advance readers just saved 62 Christmases.

From the absolute bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for responding not just quickly but generously to these kids. You know who you are — and if you have a little bit more room or want to help with Christmas dinner? Just $50 joins in on all the awesome:

Seriously, thank you.

News is not dead, nor is the spirit of giving. You just did an amazing thing, and I can’t thank you enough.

Sincerely,
All of us at the FXBG Advance

PS: …but if you want to make Gail even happier and give MORE TURKEYS to MORE FAMILIES?!

A little bit of generosity really does make the world go around.

Besides, it’s never too late to do a little more Christmas, right?
