Re: Amanda Riley Foundation Angel Trees for Children Battling Cancer

The holidays are just around the corner and we here at the Amanda Riley Foundation are striving to once again bring lots of smiles to the children we support. This year we will be providing Christmas gifts for a total of 121 which includes 24 children battling cancer, their siblings and parents.

We need YOUR help to make this happen!! This year we are very fortunate and extremely grateful to have angel trees throughout the Snellville/Lawrenceville/Dacula area. Help us make this Christmas the best ever for the families we are supporting by stopping by one of the locations listed below and picking an ornament that will ultimately put a smile of the faces of these most deserving children.

As always, we truly do appreciate your support!

More from the Foundation:

Many of the children we are supporting have requested their Christmas presents be in the form of gift cards. Throughout the year we periodically send I-Tunes, Google Play, Amazon cards and other cards to the children we are directly supporting. We also send many gas, restaurant, grocery store and other gift cards to the parents of these children to ease some of the burdens associated with having a child battling cancer. Our goal for 2015 is to include gas and restaurant gift cards in the twice monthly gift bags we give to the parents of inpatient families. So we have a huge need for gift cards. Since we will be using many of the gift cards throughout the year, the deadline for returning them is December 31st.
Again we thank you for your support this holiday season and always!!
