My husband and I met at 15 years old and started working at 15 years old. A few years back my husband lost his job as an engineer and at the same time we started to raise our three grandchildren, with our oldest son. Christmas was approaching and I was so sad because I wasn't going to be able to do what we did for all 3 of our children throughout the years. Then the Milpitas food pantry told us about the firefighter toy giveaway. We were made to feel so welcomed and the firefighters were so caring. Our grandchildren had the best Christmas ever with the wonderful gifts that were given to us we could never thank them enough for their love and generosity. It's not easy being humble and telling people that you're broke. I was embarrassed at first but the Firefighters and Milpitas Food Pantry has been there for us the past couple years and we are eternally grateful. Thank you for providing a wonderful Christmas for us. I look forward to the toy drive this year and hope that next year my husband has a job and we will no longer need to use the services. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, your love will never be forgotten. We have the best firefighters in all of California! Much love to you and Merry Christmas!
