Posted: 20 Dec 2019 08:05 AM PST Nadine of Payson was in Virginia with family and four months pregnant when she received the news that her husband had passed away. "I honestly did not know what to do at that moment," said Nadine, who was living in Florida at the time. "Being there was really, really hard for me." In June, Nadine moved to Payson to find a safe and quiet place to raise her three daughters. The single mother said her only income at the moment is survivor's benefits from Social Security. While she wants to work, Nadine said she has no one to take care of her two youngest daughters, who are 2 and 1. "I really don't have anyone else to really help me with my kids," she said. "It's just me and my girls." In the hustle of moving and without an idea of what winters in Utah are like, Nadine said she packed the bare essentials and needs warm winter clothes for her three daughters. The oldest, who is 6, needs long sleeve shirts, winter pants, hats and shoes. She wears a size 7-8 in girl's pants and shirts and a size 1 in girl's shoes. The 2-year-old also needs long sleeve shirts and winter clothes, as well as a warm onesie. Her sizes are a 3 in toddler's pants and shirts and a 7 in toddler's shoes. The youngest, 1, is in need of thick fleece pants, a long sleeve onesie and warm shirts. She wears a size 12-18 months in pants and shirts and a 3 in infant shoes. All three of Nadine's daughters have the same favorite color: pink.In terms of gifts this holiday season, the oldest would love getting L.O.L. Surprise! dolls, a baby doll and play slime. Her favorite books are the Pinkalicious and Fancy Nancy series, as well Pete the Cat books. The 2-year-old is asking for Skye Paw Patrol toys, magnetic toys and a Marble Run set. As far as books, she would like Skye Paw Patrol books, Elmo books and anything about animals. The youngest wants a wagon this year, as well as an Activity Cube with beads and turning gears. She would also love to get pop-up, texture and sensory books. All names of Sub for Santa participants have been changed.

Posted: 20 Dec 2019 10:23 AM PST KINGSPORT, Tenn. (WJHL) – Two local Girl Scout Troops teamed up to provide free winter clothing for at-risk children and families. According to a release from Girl Scouts of Southern Appalachians, this year was the third time Troop 463 has held its annual winter clothing drive to benefit the Family Resource Center of Sullivan County. This year, they partnered with Troop 1083 to cover more area. The drive lasted from late September until early December, and drop-off locations surrounded the area at elementary school, restaurants and churches. A total of 625 items were collected this year, which is almost four times the amount collected last year. The troops collected the following:
"The coat drive means a lot to me," said Holly, a Girl Scout Junior, "because it means people who don't have much can have more. I hope the coats make them feel important too." Troop volunteer Chris Bledsoe said, "The coat drive gives us volunteers the opportunity to teach our girls about philanthropy and what it means to give back to our community." In 2018, 181 items were collected. For more information on the Girl Scouts or to join, click here. |
Young Girl Saves San Jose Family From Early Morning House Fire - CBS San Francisco Posted: 19 Dec 2019 04:15 PM PST SAN JOSE (CBS SF) — An 11-year-old girl began screaming and pounding on walls in her grandmother's San Jose home early Thursday, alerting her family to a fire that was spreading from the house's living room, allowing them to escape the deadly smoke and flames unharmed. San Jose fire officials called Berlin Gomez-Muniz a hero in the fire that was first reported at 6:43 a.m. and left the family's home in the 800 block of 19th St. heavily damaged and uninhabitable. According to firefighters, the young girl got up early to get ready for school and noticed the smoke coming into her bedroom from the living room. She began yelling out to her sister, parents and grandmother, waking them up, allowing them to get out safely. "I had set my alarm for 5:30 a.m.," Gomez-Muniz told KPIX 5. "When I was going to start to get ready [for school], I saw black smoke. I immediately started yelling and screaming my dad's name until they woke up. My sister also woke up." She said she was screaming at the top of her voice and pounding on the walls of her room to make sure her family heard her. "My throat was hurting so much after it, but I had to scream out my dad's name," Gomez Muniz said. "I was just screaming 'Daddy! Daddy!' My dad opened the door right away and he got us out safely." The entire family – the girls, their mother and father and grandmother – all escaped through the back door. Berlin grabbed a robe on her way out, but not much else. Her 14-year-old sister, Lyric, also now thinks of her younger sister as a hero. "I'm very proud of her," she told KPIX 5. "She saved all of us. Something worse could have happened if she didn't say something." Grandmother Leslie Muniz said her granddaughter saved all their lives. "I don't think we would've made it out, if Berlin had not woken everybody up. She's our 11-year-old hero," said Muniz. Unfortunately, firefighters said the family cat died in the fire. Officials said there was no working smoke alarm in the home. While the blaze remained under investigation, the fire did start near the family's Christmas tree. The fire destroyed nearly everything in the home. The family spent the day salvaging what they could, but there wasn't much left. The house is a total loss. Six days before Christmas, the Gomez-Muniz family has lost a lot, but not everything. "The fact that everybody got out safely and everything, I thank God for that. And I know He's watching over us," said Leslie Muniz. The family has started an online fundraiser to help them buy clothes and other daily necessities. |
