Ms. Maggard was a beautiful soul her generosity touched the lives of thousands of migrant children. Her annual Christmas Party event brought many smiles to the migrant children. The migrant children looked forward with such enthusiasm to see Santa Claus at the Christmas Party. Her charity work expands over 50 years and still continues to assist migrant students with schalorships to attend college. Our dear Lord Jesus Christ has gain a beautiful angel by his side R.I.P Helen Maggard.
