im so happy your giving on this site. a lot of the extreme cases go to these organizations that raise money for different causes but its those that are just squeezing by that can't afford these extras. that the chanuka is not for them. like others have said I would not take you up on the offer because we have some nice toys at home (most bought or gotton used. but being in the same boat. I'm happy its going to ordinary people and not big organizations

You have a wonderful mitzvah. Almost took you up on the offer but changed my mind. May Hashem reward you for bringing joy to children who need it.

Why? If I’d like to give to anyone it would be you. I feel like I know you. And you’ve helped me a lot. I’d like to return the favor.

Mommy3b2c, you are amazing. Last year you sent gifts for my kids and it made their Chanukah!!! I won't take two years in a row, but I just wanted to give shout out. Thank you for making Chanukah a little more special.

You can take again. Why not?

I'm tearing up from the generosity here!
What amazing, generous woman!
We are in a terrible place financially, but my kids have tons of toys.
(Yes, I'm the one with the Bugaboo and expensive purse who can't afford basic groceries)
It's a beautiful idea to send joy to struggling kids on Chanukah!
May Hashem bless you with Nachas and happiness!

I’d love to send you groceries.

Wow. This is so touching.
I kind of feel like others, that there are probably people who deserve/need this more than us. Even though this is a tough financial time for us..

I have some money that I would like to spend for Chanukah presents for kids if their parents can not afford at this time. Please let me know if you are interested. I will order and ship straight to your house.

I'm not telling you how special you are because I refuse to take anything away from your awesome s'char. But👍

Wow so thoughtful! We should all learn from you!

Although we can’t afford to buy anything on our own, they will be getting lots of toys from their grandparents.

I'm in Israel, and (for now) my kids don't have a concept of Chanuka gifts. I'm keeping them far away from osher ad, where there's an aisle full of amazing plalymobile and trucks.
We'll Be''H create Chanuka memories with hot chocolate, marshmallows and dreidel games and singing maoz tzur after hadlaka.

Op, for other struggling parents who's kids are missing out, you're amazing! Tizki lmitzvos!
