I'm a mother of 2 year old twin girls. We have had a rough year and are just barely getting by. Now Christmas is around the corner and if I don't find some help for their Christmas then they won't have one.
I know a lot of charities have already stopped for signing up. I have never had to ask for help so I wasn't sure on the dates. If anyone has any info on anyone or charities that would help it would be greatly appreciated. We live in Calhoun, GA.

Thanks for the update. Sending prayers and all good wishes for you and your family for the holiday season. If you need help with food, don't forget local food pantries and churches!
Right here on Thrifty Fun they have a lot of help for you. There is a special post that the site updates that is related to finding out information for a Gerogia Christmas.
Contact local churches. You can also put want ads on Craigslist and Freecycle.
Thank you for the info. I wasn't sure on what places helped with Christmas.and to see my babies smiling is all I want. Thanks again and God Bless
There are still places to sign up so please check out all suggestions and be sure to talk to someone at any church in your area as they usually always have children's Christmas parties.
Here is a site to post your need - just tell your story and see if there is someone willing to help.
I believe you are within driving distance of Dalton and they have several open programs for children.
Have you stopped by a fire station to see what Toys for Tots can do for you?
You can also place a listing on Freecycle and Craigslist asking for help - just give a short account of why you are in need and ages of twins. Nextdoor.com is also good because it will be people in your area.

Thank you so much for the info. I have never had to ask for help so I wasn't sure what churches or government offices that helped. Thank you again and God Bless
I am so sorry to hear this. But there has to be resources in your city/town or state. Do you have "Saint Vincent De Paul?" They help children for Christmas and also food for Christmas. Also, "Catholic Charities." Are you affiliated with a church in your city/ town? Your church should help you, they are usually funded for these things. Also, call you Town Hall and ask if there are any resources to help families in need of help for their children for Christmas?
Thank you for the info. I wasn't sure what orangazations help. But thank you for the info... And as soon as I contact them I will post an update
Update. I was able to apply for Toys for Tots. Thanks again for the info. Happy Holidays and God Bless
