Paying it forward

This year our family has decided to give presents to another family instead of each other! There is a retired gentleman in the town I work who now has the task of raising his granddaughters. His wife has passed away and he is on his own. Certainly not a task he was expecting to do in this stage of his life. His daughter just dropped them off one day. They are 8 and 3 years old. He applied for food assistance from Social Services, and they gave him $100 a month. We are looking forward to seeing the little girls faces, and to help out this struggling Grandfather.

It is nice to help others. Businesses should do more of it during the holidays. Like, Robeez who will donate a pair of soft sole shoes to K.I.D.S. with every soft sole purchased through December 23rd and link to: http://www.robeez.com/EN-US/seasonofgiving.htm
