Christmas Help for My Son in Indiana?

I don't know where to turn for help. I live in Rockville, Indiana. I called Toys for Tots and they said I was too late to put his name on list. The Marine Corps doesn't do Parke county. I checked it online, so I don't know who to contact. Any suggestions?

You might try your local human services office, I know some people that have done this, also you might call local church in your area. I know they also help families with gifts at christmas.

Most of the nation wide charities that do Christmas help have a cut off date of mid-November, for applications, that is so that they can do their budgeting. If the Marines were in your area they would be connected with Toys for Tots. You don't say how old your son is but most of the charities have age cut off limits of 12-13 years too. Can't you afford to get him one little thing in the $10.00 price range?

Also doesn't he have grandparents, aunts, and uncles that send him stuff? Talk to your social worker at the Department of Social Services, maybe they would have some ideas. Also speak to your pastor, sometimes they will take up a special offering for a needy family in the congregation. However, those ideas are getting a little late too.
