[dropcap]I[/dropcap]n November 2011, Amberlyn Fett, 22, lost her lifelong battle with Cystic Fibrosis.

However, her legacy of caring and giving and the charity she created lives on.

Fett, who spent many Christmases in the hospital for treatment, saw firsthand children who had no one there and no present to open. For this reason, Fett founded Amber’s Angels during her freshman year at Dripping Springs High School. Since it’s beginning, and again this year, age appropriate Christmas gift bags will be provided to children of all ages hospitalized at Dell Children’s Medical Center in Austin.
