Tax Masters Bearing Gifts For The Holidays
Tax Masters recently completed an office gift drive for BEARing Gifts
, the Christmas gift-giving project run by BE A Resource for CPS Kids (BEAResource) in Houston, Texas. All told, employees purchased and donated gifts for 75 abused and neglected children, most of whom will receive at least two of the gifts listed on their Christmas gift wish list thanks to the response by Tax Masters employees.Lets face it, Child Protective Services (CPS) caseworkers have a pretty tough job. But that job pales in comparison to the daily realities many abused and neglected children face in their own homes. BEARing Gifts is designed to bring a bit of help and hope during the holiday season to children who have little choice about where and how they live. CPS caseworkers send the name of each child they represent to the folks at BEAResource along with the childs top three Christmas wishes. The children vary in age from a few months up to and including teenagers. BEAResource passes the wish lists along to people in the community who purchase one or all of the gifts on each list. BEAResource picks up the gifts and delivers them to the children, who might otherwise not receive any gifts for the holidays.
I think back on Christmases I had as a child and I realize how lucky I was, not only to have gifts under the tree, but to have parents that loved me and nurtured me, said Alex Clamon, VP of Sales at Tax Masters. While giving a gift wont change the situation many of these kids are in, at least it extends to them a little bit of joy. One of the gifts I saw dropped off in the office was a brand new bicycle. I know for sure thats one kid whos going to have a great surprise come Christmas morning. 75 kids may not sound like many, but this is part of a huge effort put on by BEAResource for CPS Kids every year. We are honored to be able to help them out. The response among the employees has been fantastic this year. Were really proud of everyone for stepping up.
