Sub for Santa visits the Adoption Exchange

Every year, The Advocates donate money to buy presents for children in need for the Sub for Santa program. The last few years we have participated in the Angel Tree. This year we decided to do something different. One of our employees heard about this program on the news. It is called the Adoption Exchange. They are an adoption agency located in Utah.

We chose 5 kids age ranging from 14 - 17 years old. Each child had written a list of wants and needs. The Sponsor was to buy all the needs and get at least one want. It was really fun to go out and get the wants they had listed, knowing that on Christmas Day, Santa had brought them what they wished for. I only wished we could be there when that happens. It brings us peace, joy and many blessings to know that we have done something for someone.
