Hard times, not hard hearts.(THE GOODNESS OF AMERICA)
For the past seven years, the 13 employees of SLM Financial in Fayetteville, North Carolina, have staged their annual Christmas party for the residents of Falcon Children's Home, a Christian home that cares for children who can no longer live with their families because of abuse, neglect, poverty, or the death of a parent. The SLM office supplies a gigantic dinner and gives each child an assortment of gifts, ranging from books to bikes to clothing.
This year's party was a smashing success, rivaling previous years' parties. According to FayObserver.com, regular customers of SLM Financial, such as car dealers, donated profusely to the festivities. SLM employees held a yard sale in November and raised $1,600 to buy gifts for the children. Medical professionals, solicited by SLM employees, bought and served pizza and cake at the celebration. The SLM workers inspired relatives to raise more than $1,400 and sponsor nine children; and friends and neighbors of the employees also sponsored children. All in all, the 13 SLM employees solicited donations and personally raised enough funds to feed and buy gifts for 65 children!
