A lot of wishes are actually needs
Here in the northeast, you can definitely tell that winter isn't too far away; temps are dropping, winds are picking up and stores are filled with coats and cold weather gear.
For some of us it may not be a big deal to pick up a new winter coat or pair of winter boots, but for many others having to purchase new winter essentials can be a real challenge, especially if you've found yourself suddenly, and unexpectedly, caring for a family member.
At this time of year our website is filled with lots of requests for essentials like coats, winter boots, hats, gloves, cozy sweatshirts and more. So, to help make them easier to find and easier to grant, we've put together a Giving Page featuring colder weather wishes right here.
We hope you'll find one you can grant - and even if you can't - we hope maybe you'll consider a general gift so we can pool the funds together and set more wishes as granted.
We know these wishes may not be as exciting or fun as others can be, but they are definitely necessary and absolutely appreciated by our kids and families in need.
With warm thoughts,
Danielle and The OSW Team
PS: We're getting closer and closer to holiday time when over 100 wishes will come in every single day. If you or your company are interested in setting up a Giving Page to help us grant more wishes, please email nicole@onesimplewish.org.
