For the past 25 years, Rainbow Days has hosted “Saturday with Santa”. Hundreds of stockings filled with toys, treats, and essential items were given to families.
“We have a feeding program where we serve families living in motels, and it’s increased almost twice as much as it was last year at this time,” Wierzbinski said. “A lot of people just think of the person standing on the street. They don’t think about the children. There’s over 1,000 children on any given night in Dallas that are homeless. They’re living in cars. They might be living in a motel on the floor, sleeping in one room with the whole family.
“When you’re a single mother who has not a lot of support, it helps with finances. You don’t have to stress, like…how are you going to get your baby a Christmas present,” she said. “At the end of the day, you want them to have great Christmas.” The event Saturday was made possible by hundreds of donors and about 200 volunteers, including Susan O’Suilleabhain.
“I feel that the moms know there are people who care about them, and we’re able to bring the spirit of Christmas to their children,” she said.
