I have a wish for my sister Victoria. She’s a 20+ year rheumatoid arthritis patient. Mobility is a huge obstacle for her. She fall when her R A flairs up. And is hospitalized at last twice a year. We almost lost her this last time. She has a big heart and taken many children. Getting around with them in tow has broken her heart. Those are the days she wishes her pain would be all over a refurbished one would be great.
My Christmas wish is for my mom and my fiance. My mom has been going through some hard times to pay her bills due to just not having enough money. On top of that, the neighbors in her apartment building are always harassing her and making false complaints against her to the landlord. She is also being treated unfairly at work since her job went through a company change which includes taking away their union. My mother is 62 years old and is too old to be dealing with these heavy loads of stress daily. She needs help finding the right law firm to help her fight against her job and landlord. As for my fiance, he’s been struggling to make ends meet to properly provide for his 2 kids the way he would like to. They are 14 (boy) and 15 (girl) years old and live with their mother. He’s been trying to buy a house for as long as we’ve been together (over 5 years) so that he can have full custody of his 2 kids but just can’t get the right help. This year would be the second year in a row not having a decent Christmas… Read more »

My wish is for my dad. He is a blind ,disabled veteran who has always wanted to go to the baseball hall of fame in Cooperstown NY .He can see shapes and outlines only ,and uses a blind person cane to walk…..Baseball has been a huge part of my dads life his whole life until he lost his vision …I would like him to go before his site is totally gone ,He is an amazing soul ,he dedicates everything to his family and let’s nothing stop from achieving everything he puts his mind too including us volunteering together to help those in need and less fortunate.Although I struggle myself .( I’m a deaf driving instructor) & having my car payment paid would be immensely helpful …my struggle is nothing compared to someone who is visually impaired .My step mom is a saint for putting up with my dad and my brother is a saint for taking care of him daily …..It would be a blessing for the 4 of us ,my dad ,step mom,brother & myself to give my dad his lifelong wish.
Thank you for what you do …hope your holidays are happy

My Christmas wish is to be able to do something to help my husband. He works 60 hours a week to make ends meet and is in school full time. Even being able to pay off some credit cards or buy him a Christmas gift would be awesome!
My Christmas wish would be for my family. This past year has been tremendously rough emotionally and financially for our family. My husband and I both were involved in two separate car accidents both resulting in loss of our jobs and several surgeries between us both. with limited funds we have difficulty paying for daily necessities (bills,food) let alone having a Christmas. With Christmas around the corner I wish nothing more then to give them a Christmas and a simple Christmas one gift under the tree for my children and my husband would bring me joy for myself a gift card to a grocery store. My children and husband truly do deserve it they are giving,kind, loving and most of all supportive. This has been an extremely difficult year mentally for me and I’m luck to be alive due to my emotional well being and have a Christmas would mean the world to me.Please consider my Christmas wish it will truly be a blessing.

This Christmas I don’t want anything besides to see my family happy. Most recently we had to uproot our entire lives to get away from a bad situation. In the process, we had to leave a lot behind all in the matter of a week not even. Let me get to the point I want to nominate my mother Brandi for this Christmas gift. My mom has always put my brothers and I before herself even when it comes to her health, and right now is the time more than ever that she needs to focus on her health instead of working to provide a better life for my brothers and I. To me she has already provide the best life she could have provided to us and seeing her suffer because she is too anemic breaks my heart. This is the woman who gave me life, raised me into the woman I am becoming, helped me when I’ve fallen down and yet I can’t seem to do the same for her instead I’m just a helpless child facing the darkness of life trying to find a way out. A way to fix everything even though it’s like trying to… Read more »
Dear iheart radio, this wish is for my mother Lydia. She is 58 years old and has raised 11 of her own children and countless kids that were not her own but that she gracefully helped raise. My mother is seriously a saint. Her doors are always open to anyone. Whether it’s a place to sleep or a hot plate of food. My mother lives by a saying, “help others and always do what you can.” With that motto I have always done my best at helping others. I try to keep at least $5 in my car. Whenever I see a homeless person I graciously hand it over to them. I very much believe in good karma. My mother will give her last dime to anyone in need before she even thinks of something for herself. I wish I could give her as much as she has given me in this world. My mother has to have her second knee surgery and is ignoring the fact that she needs it done because that means she will be in pain and unable to do as much as she can now. My mother and I will greatly appreciate such a kind… Read more »
Dear iHeartRadio, I have one Christmas wish it is to be able to help mom. She took my 2 young boys and myself over thanksgiving, for we were homeless and I just got out of a toxic relationship. I came to her with no money, no food, and no place to live. She gave all of that to us. We are all living in a two bedroom house with 5 people in total, her, my 15 year old brother, my 2 sons and myself. She helped watch my youngest when I went to school and she is currently trying to find a way to help me pay my outstanding bill from this semester which was $4600, so I can register for my spring semester so I graduate with a BA in Music. Today she found out she lost her job, which was the only income in the house. I want to help her out, but right now I’m only getting money from my sons’ father, but that won’t cover rent or other bills and I’m trying to find a job that will work with me being a single mom and my schooling. Money is tight and not sure if there… Read more »

I would like to nominate my daughter for the Christmas giveaway. Last year she was thrown out of her apartment by her soon-to-be ex-husband. She has a 18 month old son and is in desperate need of clothing for herself and the baby. She also needs toys for the baby. I have helped as much as I can but even with our two waitress salaries we are unable to pay all the bills on time or even at all. I am in need of a new liver not due to drinking but due to being overweight. I will have a transplant sometime next year and we will be without my income. She is a wonderful mother and we both work as many hours as we are able to. I want nothing for myself. She is 22 and really wants nothing for herself either. It’s hard when all of your dreams of a happy family come to an end after just a year of marriage but we both agree it would be better than living in a home without love. All she wants is for her son, my grandson to not go without on Christmas. We have a really small family… Read more »

Iheart, this wish request is not for me. Is for my 30 year old son who has had Crohn’s since this was 11. Chris has always been strong, and even when he couldn’t get up, he manage to going to school and work to provide for himself and now for his family. Chris goes every 8 weeks for remicade IV infusions at the local cancer center. It has been like this for over five years. Sadly this has been one of his most difficult year. He has not been able to work for over 10 months, this because of his declining health. He had colon surgery in August. Disability benefits have run out. He has started a claim with the social security, but we all know this takes time. He has two boys one almost 5 the other 10 months old. His girlfriend works at one of the local chain stores, small salary and difficult to support a family of 4. Both my husband and I help when we can. He has just notified us that surgery is once again possible in January. This to remove a seton that was place for fistulas to heal in August. I know that… Read more »

I have a granddaughter that has 3 little boys and she lives in low income apartment and she still works but with babysitting expenses, housing, electric, water, and gas bills she has nothing left to give to her small boys for Christmas. She is behind with some of her bills and struggles everyday to get ahead. She is really trying and only needs a heads up. Can you please see your way to help her with this wish.
My cousin Pat Bolinger of Woodstock, Ga. is estranged from her two adult children by their choice. She moved from her home to be near her daughter who has now abandoned her and got her fired from her part time job which she desperately needs to supplement her low social security income. She has been selling her furniture to get money to pay her rent. She desperately needs money to get her away from this volatile family situation and back to her home town. Any help you can give her would be appreciated. Thank you
Dear iheart,
If I were to have one Christmas wish this year, it would be to be able to finish school. I am five classes away from finishing my undergraduate degree in history at Grand Canyon University. I have exhausted all of my student loans and do not qualify for any grants. I really want to finish so I can be a teacher and go to graduate school. The total I need is approx $12,000. But anything that can be done to assist with this will go directly to the school. I promise I wont let you down. Thank you!
My husband suffered a massive heart attack oct 2016 and was dead for 25 minutes. We have battled one full year of nothing but bills and gotten knocked down. We are both retired firefighters and we had started to “redo” our basement into a fireman man caveman. With my husband’s heart attack he doesn’t have the strength and we don’t have the funds to keep moving on it. It would so be a blessing to my husband if we could make dent in the man cave as he goes down there and just looks around so sad cause he can’t do the work.
