The Season for Caring Day of Giving was held Saturday afternoon, December 12, 2012, at a Whataburger in Round Rock and included family activities such as card and ornament decorating, children’s games, face painting and a visit with Santa Claus.
Season for Caring highlights the needs of 12 local families and helps hundreds of other families served by the same local nonprofit agencies.
Since it began in 1999, readers have generously donated more than $7 million in cash and in-kind goods and services.
Read the families’ stories and wish lists and see photos of the families. To donate an item on a family’s wish list, contact the agency that nominated the family directly.
