On Tuesday, December 16th, Jason and his personal foundation sponsored a holiday shopping spree at a local Toys ‘R Us for 40 kids ages 7-11 from Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center.
Each child was given a $300 Toys ‘R Us gift card to purchase toys. Jason was on hand to help the kids select toys and to spread a little holiday cheer to kids in need.
“I really hope that I was able to provide a little bit of happiness to kids who have gone through serious adversity,” said Jason. “I am thankful to the Children’s Advocacy Center of Dallas for the good work they do each and every day on behalf of children”.
“Jason’s generosity, both in time and money, towards these children is emblematic of the true spirit of the holiday season,” said Lynn Davis of the Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center. “And, it was a special treat to see the joy on these children’s faces.”
