Another year, another chance to bless some amazing families right here in the CSRA. KICKS Christmas Wish 2024 wrapped up on Friday, as we met all of the families in person and had the opportunity to present them with the donations and gifts. A huge thank you to Jim Hudson Automotive Group for their incredible support of this event each year, and for letting us host the wrap-up at Jim Hudson Lexus. Also, thank you to Fresh Take Grocery, Lil G's Wagons of Hope, and The RiRi That Brought Christmas.

Because of our amazing support in this community, we were able to bless five families with monetary donations, along with toys for the kids for Christmas. It was such a special day to meet these families who have worked so hard but have experienced some setbacks this year. We helped families who adopted children, families who foster kids, and families who were impacted by Hurricane Helene earlier this year.
