The best time of the year returns: Spencer Solves It Team launches Christmas Miracles project for 9th year in a row

What you can do if you need help now

It’s that time of year again when The Spencer Solves It Team launches their Christmas Miracles Project to help needy families.

This is the ninth year in a row that Bill and his merry, band of miracle workers have gone to work to rescue Christmas for five needy families who have been through the worst year of their lives. We will surprise five families that have been through sheer hell this year and, for whatever reason, can’t afford to give their children anything for Christmas.

UPDATE: Submissions have closed for this year’s Christmas Miracles. We know there are a lot of people out there who need help. The United Way of Greater Houston helps connect families in need to organizations and nonprofits that can help You can call 2-1-1 to talk to a trained specialist. They’ll listen to your need and use a database of social services to find the right help for you.

RECAP of previous years: Christmas Miracles: The Spencer Solves It Team helps spread Christmas joy by gifting 5 families with gift cards, bikes and more

Here’s what Bill wants you to know about this project:

Each family chosen will receive $1,500 dollars in cash to spend on whatever they want.

They will each get a $1,000 gift card from Academy Sports and Outdoors, and all of the children in each family will receive brand-new bicycles and helmets for Christmas, specially selected and sized for them.

Okay, so now we need your help to make this project work.

  • If you and your family have had a devastating year and have no way to provide any kind of Christmas for your children, write to me and tell me all about it.
  • Tell me what you’ve lived through and be very specific about how this tragedy hurt your family.
  • Most importantly, please tell me exactly how many children you have, and I need to know if they are a boy or a girl and how old they are.
  • Make sure to include your best contact information including your cell phone number and email address.
  • Then over the next several weeks, I will be reading all of your letters, and I will be picking five families to provide a fabulous Christmas for this year.
  • If you are filling this form out for someone else, please provide the ages and genders of each child. If you don’t know, that’s okay, but at least tell me how many children this family has.
