The holidays should be a special time for all kids. This year a local organization is ensuring area children battling cancer have their holiday wishes granted, while also helping to make sure the memory of a young mother who lost her fight to cancer lives on.

Crystal Shaw lost her sister, Kimberly Shaw, to a rare form of cervical cancer. Now she's helping Kimberly's memory to live on with "Kimberly's Hope."

"Kimberly's Hope" is a program where volunteers request to "adopt" child fight cancer for Christmas. Adoptive Parents get all of the info about their child so you can give them a Hope Box. It's asked all gifts be age appropriate and that people only donate new toys that are individually wrapped.

Donations can be dropped off locally at Animal Krackers Learning Center on D Street and Missouri in Midland.
