RICHMOND, Va. -- Moving to a different country can be tough on a family. That's why CBS 6's Shelby Brown brought together the power of multiple charities and organizations to bring gifts and a holiday meal to one refugee family from the Republic of the Congo.

Gifts included coats, toys and other items the family may have needed during this time of year. And it didn't take long for the children to open the presents and put them to use!

The CBS 6 Month of Giving made possible by Virginia Credit Union is underway. Watch for a new surprise every day in December on CBS 6 News at 6 a.m., 4 p.m., and 6 p.m. Have an idea about who we should surprise next, click here to email our team.
