It was at this point that he decided that he was going to do what he could to see that no child would ever be forgotten at Christmas again. As Christmas of '62 approached, Mr. Wright found himself in real trouble. He had personally promised over two dozen kids that Santa would come this year and the could count on it. He knew that there was a way that this could be done, and the people of Chattanooga would be more than happy to help, if he could only show them how. He had struggled with this problem for a year and had not found the answer and time was running out. It seemed that the only thing to do was get a loan company to finance this year, and then maybe things would work out by the next year. At this time, the Wright family attended Sunday School at Highland Park Baptist Church. Mrs. Wright would go into the classroom and Mr. Wright would stay outside and work traffic for the church, then he would join his family.   

Mr. Wright describes, "It was close to Christmas of '62 when the Lord and his Sunday School Class answered the question, 'How?'. I came into the room and the Sunday School Class informed me that my wife had told them about my problem and that they were going to help. This wonderful class had raised $85 in donations! The solution seems so simple now, but up until that time, it was one I couldn't solve. The Lord used me and the $85 to start what is now known as the Forgotten Child Fund. He had shown me the way."
