I have met this lady through school and she does not have much money and she told me no money for gifts for the children. I dont know her overaly well but I would like to give her children some things. I buy specials all through the year and have a stockpile of toys in my loft that I use for presents and birthdays for all the children who invite my children to their parties. The problem is I dont want to embarrass her. What should I do?

I would just buy them all a gift from you at xmas time! And if you have some toys you dont use/want lying around, say that you had a clear out and was wondering if her children would use the things your "throwing" away!

Do you and the girl have any mutual friends? They may know her better. She may be genuine OR she may just be a scrounger. Take care because I would hate for your generous spirit to get a knock if you found out that's what she is. If she is genuine then you could visit and leave them behind without saying anything.
GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS........

have a talk to her nd just say you have a few spare toys lyin round the house. ( if she asks why u have them in you rhouse tell her why) nd that u wudnt mind if she had a few for her children. she should understand that your a friend and are concerned an she shouldnt be offended

You should just take a few round to her house . She might burst into tears but she will be grateful, if only because you will make her kids christmas!! Just choose your words carefully so as not to let her think that she is a charity case. Good for you. !! Merry Christmas to you.

aw........ that would be really sweet of you to do. you should go shopping with her and pick the presents.
I don't think it would embarrass her, if it would then she wouldn't have told you that she has know money to buy gifts for her sweet children.
have fun abd marry Christmas. GOD IS ARE SAVIOR!!! WHOO!

I think she might initially be embarrassed but very grateful as will the children.I think this is a very kind thought on your part. I hope you have a very good Christmas you sound like a very nice person. xx

Take something for each of them and also for your friend. Nothing to expensive though, this might make her feel a bit embarassed. If you do it with good will there should be no problem
