"I want to say a big thank you to the San Diego Coalition for the Homeless for the Toy Give-Away. I never thought my kids would have any presents this year. But thanks to you, they woke up with smiles on their faces and gifts to open. It was the best thing I could’ve asked for. You really made Christmas special for us when we needed it most. I’m so grateful for the support.

"I just want to say thank you so much for the Toy Give-Away this year. I honestly didn’t know how I was going to make Christmas special for my kids. But thanks to you, my daughter had presents to open and a big smile on her face. It meant everything to us. The toys weren’t just gifts—they were a sign that people care. It was a real blessing. I can’t thank you enough for making this Christmas better than I ever imagined."
