Six-year-old Liam never had a Christmas tree. When other children talked about their favorite Christmas traditions, Liam sat quietly. He lived with his grandfather, and money was always tight. Trees and decorations were not a priority. His Christmas wishes were often wishes he kept to himself.
Liam’s grandfather passed away, and two weeks before Christmas, Liam came to live at Broyhill Home. Upon arrival, he walked straight to the tree. His eyes widened as the lights twinkled. “It’s beautiful,” he whispered.
People give with no idea what their gift will accomplish in the heart of a child. A Christmas gift for a little boy who went to a more permanent placement the first week of December was just what Liam had wished for under the tree that Christmas morning—a Batman bicycle.
“This is my best Christmas ever!”
Note: Liam experienced his “best Christmas ever” because friends like you sacrificially give – thank you! Make a gift today to have your gift DOUBLED through the $300,000 Matching Gift Challenge and bring hope to even more children this Christmas and beyond.
