MOREHEAD CITY â Stephanie Santana was struggling to afford Christmas gifts for her children.
That all changed Wednesday thanks to The Salvation Army, which provided toys and other items to families in need of a helping hand this holiday season.
âThis is a very important help, especially now that COVID has hurt families,â Ms. Santana said. âWe didnât have money for rent and the Salvation Army has helped us. Christmas was going to be very hard but now my kids will have gifts.â
She and her children were among 40 families picking up items at a drive-thru line at the Golden Corral on Arendell Street, where The Salvation Army set up a makeshift toy distribution warehouse. Among the families, about 100 children will be receiving the gifts.
