Christmas Giveaway Thread for those in need 2019 (final update OP page 14)

I am going to help you out next year, InterMezzo. I just wrote GLP Christmas Fund on a box, and I will feed it as much as I can throughout the year.

Such a beautiful thing to be able to help others in our community.

Check your PayPal Kate. And Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful little girl.

I don't need anything related to monetary value.

‘Tis the Season again. The past years we had a Christmas Giveaway Thread, were we made Christmas a bit better for those who needed some cheering up. For me it started in 2017 with a Amazon Gift Card giveaway thread by St3v3 and followed by others like Javierruiz, Zalinsky, Cosmicgypsy, Truthserum. Beautiful people with beautiful hearts.

Last year I decided to make this a tradition, with much appreciated help of again Javierruiz and Kamchatka. So let’s follow up on it again this year.

I have saved up some funds throughout the year to give to those who can use it most and we have a beautiful soul who contributed as well. This person wants to stay anonymous and I will of course respect that. Nevertheless, that gesture is extremely appreciated. You are simply awesome!!!

Our society is getting tougher, colder, more individual, divisive, confusing. We all have our own examples to share. I experienced it myself. Lost my job of 39 years through bankruptcy in May this year. But no worries, I am fine. I know that there are so much people who struggle to put food on the table, not only at Christmas, but day after day. Let alone them being able to buy their kids and loved ones the tiniest gift for their birthday or with holidays like these.

I will always believe in people and in good outdoing the bad, no matter what. To those who struggle, I want to say and I know it is a repeat, but not meant less from the heart:

"Do not give up! In our weakest moments we find strength and belief, in ourselves and those around us. Don't be afraid to reach out. Trust me, I've been there myself and it is only through strength, belief and reaching out that I am now able to pay if forward. If I can do it, you can do it too. You are beautiful, you are strong, you are no quitter."

And to those that want to give, but are not able to do that financially:

“Know that the power of giving is not financial driven. It is driven by the heart. Lending someone an ear, show encouragement through words or giving a heartfelt hug or a tap on the shoulder, already can work miracles and be the trigger to give people that boost of confidence they need. If we can do that within the circle of our own influence, we already made this world a bit warmer. And give hope that it will spread like an ink spot.”

There might be voices that say that this gesture will be abused, that people should crawl out of the hole that they dug themselves, that everyone makes their own bed. To you I want to say that your words have no place or meaning here. This is a thread about giving and caring, not about doubt or blame.

Okay Mezzo, enough with the talking already! Sorry, the curse of writing…

We would like to spread the funds to as many people as possible. I believe we can help around 20 families with the available funds. Through PayPal preferably. But I also have an Amazon Prime membership, so if you for example create a wish list there with some presents for your kids or loved ones, that would work too. Please try to keep it at a maximum of €50 per wish list per family.

Anyway, how it works:

Feel free to post here, send me a pm or email me at [email protected] with your PayPal or Amazon wish list and I will see what I can do in the coming few days. I can't be around 24/7, but I will make sure you will get it in time.

Also feel free to post a Christmas song or a heartfelt thought, even if you don’t need anything. I know music and words also have a soothing or cheering effect on all of us.

And finally, if a MOD could please pin this thread, that would be great. Thanks!

Merry Christmas everyone. Let’s make this happen!

I will be that little girl’s Santa this year. Sending you an email

Although I wasn’t selected I wanted to say God bless those who received help and I’m so so happy for you and I pray it makes your Christmas better. Thanks to intermezzo

Op and the others Thank you. It will be just my husband and I this Christmas but next year will be better. My family lives 500-600 miles away so it’s out to visit. My mom has beginning dementia and unfortunately I am the one she has deemed stealing from her when she misplaced something. I live 500 miles away so it’s impossible but she doesn’t see that. I have never taken anything from her or dad but gave freely given what ever I have to anyone. Dad just cries because he sees it and can do nothing. Anyway. I’m thankful they are still here with us no matter what the circumstances. Life is and can be good. We are blessed to live.

I am sorry for your loss Brycenator.

Can you email me at [email protected] please? And I will see what I can still do.

God Bless you all.

Btw Mezzo, love the pic!
