Every year, Jackson-Feild Behavioral Health Services conducts a
"Sponsor-a-Child for Christmas" program to raise funds for gifts,
special meals, outings and activities during the Christmas holidays and
throughout the year.
The children want to thank the churches and church groups of
the Diocese of Southern Virginia for their generosity and kindness in
providing gifts and opportunities during the Christmas holidays.
Wayne, 13, commented that last year "I received a pair of
socks. It was bad because I watched everyone else open gifts and I got
only socks. This year I am blessed that I spent my Christmas as
Jackson-Feild. I had the best Christmas ever!"
The staff also thanks the churches, ECW's, youth groups and
parishioners for making Christmas wishes come true for the children in
their care.
