Earlier this week, NFL star Will Smith and his wife Racquel Smith, held their annual holiday event as part of his “Where There’s A Will There’s A Way Foundation’s efforts in partnership with Kingsley House.
Twenty families pre-selected from the Kingsley House program attended the evening’s festivities, which included a catered dinner, a tour of the Saints facility, gifts selected personally by Will and Racquel, and a visit from Santa.
Each family submitted a wish list of presents to Will and Racquel prior to the evening’s event, and the couple then spent the day before personally selecting and wrapping all of the toys and clothes for the families from the Kingsley House.
“It was important to us that all of the families felt special tonight and so my wife and I took the time to make sure each person that attended were treated like part of our family,” said Will. “By the end of the night, I felt like I got to know everyone and was able to share in the joy as they unwrapped their Xboxes or took their new bikes for a quick spin around the Saints cafeteria.
