I was inspired by you. I got 3 seniors off an Angel tree. They had no kids on this one. One lady only asked for hard candies, so you know I had to get her a lot more than that. It was so much fun. I am hoping they like their gifts. 🎄

They're going to love them. Thank you for doing it. I am in hospital in England Ashford. When I get out I'm going to find some Angel children and also send prezzies to the two girls I sponsor with World Vision. They are no longer at risk of child marriage. Thank God for that.

Angel Tree Kids FAQs: 1. Yes, this process is completely anonymous. The kids/parents/guardians will never know who I was, and vice versa, as it should be. 2. No, I don't have any way to "prove" that the parents/guardians will actually give the presents to the kids. 3. Yes, there is a possibility that they'll sell the presents and keep the money for themselves...However, I can say that the facility that manages this particular Angel Tree knows the parents/guardians and children personally. They are all vetted and known to at least one employee there. These aren't just people who walked in off the street and filled out a form. 3a. (I prefer not to automatically assume the worst in any given situation, especially if it's a situation where I'll never know one way or the other how it played out.) 4. Yes, I spend significantly more per child than that required $75-100. I do what I want. 5. Yes, I suppose I could spend less per child and adopt more children off the tree. I could also just give every kid a Hershey bar and adopt them all. Maybe take some of that speculative energy and put it into helping someone in your own community instead of wasting it here. I'll add to this list as the Grinches show up and find more problems where none existed previously. * If the audio sounds bad, try going to Settings - Additional Settings - Stable Volume, and turn Stable Volume off.

Mary, you inspired me 3 years ago to start buying presents for children in a program similar to Angel Tree, as well as buying school supplies when school starts. And just like you, I get shoes, clothes, a coat, toys and sweets. I always try to include a stocking. This year I can barely lift the gift bag😂

Hi Mary! I was inspired by your angel tree kids videos and got a 15 year old girl to get gifts for this year🤩As a young girl in her 20’s i’m really excited bc I feel like we still like a lot of the same stuff so it shouldn’t be too hard to shop for her lol. Thank u for pushing me to finally do this though! ❤

@jackieoconnor492619 күн бұрын
Ah, enjoyed this 😊. Isn’t it funny how we all approach things differently? Mary likes the front of the gifts facing away from the sellotaped side. I always wrap mine so the front is the same side as the sellotape, so that when the children unwrap the gift, they see the front immediately on opening. So generous with your gifts and your time as always Mary.

My mom and I usually do a few of these letters off one of our local trees. I don't know if the store that was hosting it this year was greedy or if most kids truly wanted specifically gift cards to the store itself, but those felt truly uninspiring. I would think the store could add a gift card ON TOP of what the kids specifically wanted. But perhaps that's too anti-capitalist of me to expect.
