問題詳情：

My family lived in a motel for two years. Like most families living there, we stayed in a two-bedroom suite. We were living from paycheck to paycheck, so when Christmas approached, we didn't know if we would be able to purchase gifts for our children.

A few days before Christmas someone dropped off presents for all the kids that lived at the motel. It brought so much joy to all the children, most of whom knew that they wouldn't be receiving anything.

Five years ago, we moved out of the motel. After that, my husband and I were working hard at Joe’s Crab Shack to support our family. A few days before Christmas. I was working a “big top” and a single table. The man at my table could see the large tables was taking most of my time, but I was very patient and  friendly. Between drinks and food I was able to chat with him about his family and mine. He left me $ 10, then walked out. A bout 10 minutes later, I turned around and there he was again. He gave me a hug, and put something inside my apron, telling me “ Have a Merry Christmas”. I reached into my apron and pulled out $ 800.

I was so overwhelmed by his generosity that I burst into tears. He had given me more than enough money to help my family catch up on our bills. After discussing what we should do with the money we had left over. We decided to buy presents for the families living at the motel, so we could pass on the blessing that we had received. Since then, it has been a tradition for us to give Christmas gifts to the families in need.

Last year we were able to give presents to each of the 80 children at a school in our community, and throw a Christmas party for them. This year our goal is to add at least 20 children.
