I live in League City, Tx south of houston I am looking to get help for my 1yr old son with x-mas I don't make much money where I work enough to pay bills and that is it no extra cash at all I want to make sure he has some kinda christmas little is better then nothing. I looked into the Spirit of Texas toy drive but the deadline was today to apply. Where else could I find help in my location?

Try your local Salvation Army.. although it may be too late for them as well. I know where I am at, they had signups back in October.
Also, contact a church to see if they would be willing to adopt him for Christmas.
You can try toys for tots as well. Just go to their site, click on request toys and contact the officer nearest to you. I am not sure if it is too late to apply with them or not. (http://toysfortots.org/)
The good news is that at 1 year old he isn't going to miss much. You could get him a couple items from the dollar store and he would probably be happy. If he is anything like my girl was at 1, he will be more interested in the wrapping paper than the gifts.
Good Luck!

Visit your nearest H and R Block office (the tax folks) with your latest check stub. You can receive an advance on your earned income tax credit in less than 2 hours and up to $1500.00.

He's only 1. He doesn't know any better. Just put on Xmas music and decorate with whatever you have. That's "some kind of Christmas" isn't it? Presents do not equal love.

i agree with kitkat
don't spend too much as he is only 1 years old. heck if you give him a colourful cardbox box he'd be just as happy!!
Save the money this year and put it away until he's a couple of years old!

Try Toys For Tots. They have a great drive that can help you.

Get in touch with your local Salvation Army and ask them.

Meet your parish priest in church and the church will definitely help.

Don't stress over it, he's only one and doesn't know anything about it.
