Today’s family in need: This couple has been struggling to make ends meet.
They are both disabled yet will do what they can to make extra money to stretch their budget.
“Recently, one of their grown children dropped the grandkids off. They are aged 4 and 5,” said Salvation Army Corps Officer Lt. Kelly Berggren. “It’s been well over a month, and the parents have not returned for their children.”
Grandma and Grandpa are seeking help so the children may have a merry Christmas.
