Today's family in need: This single father has just reunited with his 7-year-old daughter after being apart for three years.
"The mother took the child to Phoenix, where she landed in jail," said Salvation Army Corps Officer Lt. Kelly Berggren. "The child has been living in foster care until the father could be located. Dad would love to make this a special Christmas for his recently found daughter."
