The more specific the wish request the better the gifts returned!

• When asking children what they would like this holiday season, please spend the time to find out what the
• person really wants.

• Please do not forget to include size requirements with the wish. We cannot guess what size the child
• wears. This includes shoes, slippers, roller skates, jackets, hats, sweatshirts or any other clothing.

• Remember, the dollar limit for a gift request is $30.00 . This eliminates most video games, Nintendo’s, 501 Jeans, bicycles, name brand shoes and clothing. Please do not ask for FUBU, Nike etc. If the request

  is for an expensive gift or a gift certificate we will change it and the child will not get what he/she is asking for.

• The most important thing to remember is this: We place these wishes in front of potential donors . The wishes must be “likeable” and must avoid begging the question if the recipients are truly needy.
