The Empty Stocking Fund will begin taking applications on Thursday. For one local mother, Stephanie Hall, the fund was a vital source of support last year.
With me doing everything by myself as a single mother, and paying all the bills by myself, I really don’t have any money left over. With the (Empty) Stocking Fund, it helped me to be able to have that completed for my kids.
Hall, a single mother of four, used the fund to provide Christmas presents for her children. She encourages other families to apply, saying
the help is there.
