I know it's kind of late in the season to start this but since I will be relying on emails instead of snail mail I may be able to pull this off in time for Christmas.
What I am doing here is asking that anyone aware of a family in need ask the parents in that family to enter a brief comment here to this post letting Santa Claus know what they would like to get their child for Christmas but may need some help in acquiring it this year in this terrible economy. I will pick a winner at random from among all entries I receive and will try to send the parents at least one item from the wish-list or will send a gift card to help them purchase something for their kid(s). That way they have at least a little something extra to put under the tree, or in the stocking, or on the table this year.
Please keep it reasonable, I will not be buying anyone anything above about $50 (and will not gift anything illegal or that I consider tasteless). I will accept comments beginning tonight through Thursday, December 18th at 11:59 PM. I will ask the winning parent(s) to send me contact info at a later date so I can arrange shipment of the gift to the parents. I will announce the winner on Friday December 19th in a new post and in the comments section of this post. My selection of the winner, the type and value of the prize and the awarding of the prize is final. I retain the right to cancel this offer at any time including after entries have been submitted. By your entry into this contest, you agree without reservation to hold me harmless and indemnify in any and all legal actions that are directly or indirectly brought because of your participation in this event or because of your use or gifting of the prize or due to any other consideration at all related to this contest and the results. If you don't agree, don't enter. Other than that, have a very Merry Christmas.

All the best,
