It's time for change.. We need to help others.

For the past couple of years my sister and I have gotten involved in helping others. Throughout the year I have donated to foundations like St. Judes Hospital, Feed The Children, Help The Rescues, and other foundations. Last year my sister and I found a shelter home near us that we thought would be great to go to and help out. So on Thanksgiving last year we went and helped out in the kitchen. I have never pealed SO many potatoes in my LIFE! It was the best though. We got to meet many of the people there. Being there it gave me the best feeling in the world knowing that I was actually helping people. We actually made a couple of friends who we like to visit throughout the year. One special friend really touched my heart. This man has gone through a lot in his life, but he kept his faith and to this day he is trying to make himself a better person. My sister and I went again on Christmas and we helped cook and serve the food. We brought bags of clothing that were new/lightly worn to donate, such as, sweaters, t-shirts, pants, hoodies, and etc. The smiles on their faces made me tear up. So now this year I asked my school principal if we could set up a box in school where people can donate clothing that is new/lightly worn and she fell in love with the idea! It was passed! So now in a couple of weeks I will be at the shelter home on Thanksgiving with bags of clothes (hopefully)!! To tell you the truth, MY DREAM is to hopefully have an organization/foundation where I can help others.

Get your good on!

Love,
