Big Hearted Angels Ministry held 11th Christmas Shopping Spree

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) — The Big Hearted Angels Ministry held their 11th annual Christmas Shopping Spree.

They host this event with the Eastdale Community Development Corporation and the Greater Second Missionary Baptist Church.

The ministry provided each child with a $50.00 allowance to make sure they could meet their needs or wants this Christmas.

They credit the community’s support for making this possible.

“Every child should be able to experience Christmas. There are people in our community who financially do not have the wherewithal to make sure that their children have something for Christmas. I remember when I was a child how excited I was to get something under the tree so we want to do that for every child so we want to make sure that every child has a Christmas,” says Dr. Steve A. Caulde with Greater Second Missionary Baptist Church.

The children were also able to learn about about budgeting to help stretch their shopping allowance to get the most for their money.
