It was originally called wassailing a santa in colorado can communicate with all children, no matter what language they speak, that includes sign language. In colorado sign language santa made his annual visit to cherry creek mall in denver yesterday. Giving hundreds of hearing impaired children a chance to personally tell saint nick what they would like for christmas this year. Its just a really heartwarming day to watch all of these kids tell him what they want in their language. Nearly threehundred kids from different schools in the denverarea were brought in to meet and sign with santa. The event was also open to the public. Heres a story perfect for the giving season. A franklin man had a big idea in trying to help out some kids in need living in africa. But it wasnt until he got some big time help from one professional team in here in milwaukee, that he was game. Every year tim banks and his Franklin CityInvestments Firm gives back. Were a very small firm we give a little bit to no kill shelters some of the homeless shelters, every year a little bit and i shake the bell. I get a kick out of standing on oakland and locust and shaking the bell and watching pe this year they are taking their giving spirit to a whole new level. I have a friend in gambia, or west gambia east africa its near sierra leone, the children there are very very poor, they only have pencils for school, but their number one sport is soccer. Own. I know many people here in the United States their kids need things but there, those kids have nothing so we can make a difference. But then he had another idea. So i was going to go door to door and what i first did was i called the milwaukee wave and a gentleman named just said meet us at 37th and wisconsin and we will see what we can do. He just called us and we were very happy to do that since we had gear that we could do that with. And this is what larry sayles and the wave did. 36 balls and a couple of bags of jerseys. I thought anything that we can do and we had a sets of a old practice gear and we had some soccer balls that we had left over from our summer camp and i said what a better way to do it then to get it to those kids that love the game and could really use these things for their spirit and for the love of would take him weeks of work to accomplish, was finished in just moments thanks to the milwaukee wave. For the wave they really kicked in they deserve 99. 9 percent of the credit. Being the milwaukee wave weveeen here years and we entertainment and a mily business and what better y to give back to our community thats been so good to us than with equipment that we can give to the kids and help them grow with it. Next tim, contacted father william at the church of the resurrection in west gambia, and come this christmas he will surprise the children in the village. Id rather have them handed out on their holiday, their holy day whether its Christmas Eve or st. Nicholas day or whatever they do there, then just given them to h there. Theres enough there to handle a few villages over there and its going to make a big difference in about 40, maybe 100125 kids difference at christmas. Its a holiday that will be brighter thanks to a man from franklin that they never met. And a team existed. Thats pretty neat that they get something with milwaukee on it and then the people that are giving it to them can tell them a little bit about milwaukee and maybe see pictures of how we play the game here, but it sends chills down your spine.
