As a senior at Voc-Tech, Anthony is in HVAC courses and set to graduate in June. However, Anthony has been responsible for caring for his 5-year-old brother since extenuating circumstances at home left Anthony in charge. Because of his home life, Anthony was never able to get his driver's license, a car and is worried that he will not be able to afford his certifications (which only cost $50) for his HVAC licenses once he graduates in the Spring.

When we met Anthony, we asked him what would make his holiday better or his life easier. And without missing a beat, he started telling us what his younger brother wanted for Christmas, not mentioning anything for himself. Anthony said he hoped he'd be able to give his brother a great Christmas, since neither of the boys have been very lucky in life thus far.

Because we know that Anthony will hopefully be working the HVAC field come next year, we are hoping to get him some work clothes, new boots, tools and other items that can help him further his career and provide for himself and his 5-year-old brother.
