Meet the 2023 KISS Wish Families:

The Anderson Family

Financially, this has been a trying year for our household. At the end of 2022, we were hit with a medical emergency that netted an out-of-pocket expense of approximately $13,000 that we started paying at the beginning of 2023. To add to this financial stress, our mortgage payment increased by an additional $630 per month at the same time. We have survived this year by using credit cards to cover additional expenses, which has made purchasing gifts this Christmas impossible. This reality is quite disappointing when all Aaliyah has been talking about for the past two months is “Being a good girl so Santa visits our house.” As the only child in the house, waking up on Christmas and not having “Santa visit our house” is unimaginable.

The Walker Family

This single mother of three has been deemed legally disabled and has medical issues that has prevented her from working since 2019. The father is not in the home, due to being severely disabled himself and is in a nursing home. Ms. Walker has no vehicle and gets what little support that she can from her elderly grandmother. Due to a brain injury in 2019, she was forced to drop out of her nursing program.

The Figueroa Family

My name is Meg Figueroa and I am a super busy 1st time mom who is engaged to a welder. After struggling financially for quite a while, my fiancé just filed for bankruptcy. We also have to leave our house in the next few months because we can no longer afford it. The house belonged to his mother, who is elderly and disabled, and we had to place her into a nursing facility because of her declining health. We were caring for her before she left. As a first time mom, this has all been insanely stressful. We’ve had a pretty rough year to say the least, but the best thing by far is the birth of our baby girl back in March. Through it all, my Luna is the star in my sky. She is my happiness and the love of my life. She is about to be 9 months old now and she is quite the chunky baby, so we have no clothes left that fit her. Christmas has been the LAST thing on our minds right now, and as usual, all I ever want is for her to have everything she needs. She needs clothes, diapers, and wipes. This would be a big blessing for our little family and anything is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

This is my family the Chancellor family. I’m a single mother of 5 that cherishes her family. It’s a struggle to keep everything afloat but I do it. I have to work so hard putting in 60+ hrs a week that I don’t have much time to spend with them. To be able to do something special for them this Christmas would bring joy to my heart.
