Giving Back this Christmas

“It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.”
Mother Teresa

“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.”
Charles Dickens

“We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.”
Winston S. Churchill

‘Tis the season for all the best things. The lovely, wonderful things that many of us wait many months for. Hot chocolate and cookies by the fire. Fuzzy socks and snuggly blankets. Family traditions and time with friends enjoying indulgent food and beautifully wrapped packages picked out with love and care. Most importantly, in keeping with the joyful and loving spirit the last few weeks of the year bring, we remember it is the season of giving.

Maybe you are a champ when it comes to charity work each year, or maybe you simply feel it is about time you put some good out into the universe: the holiday season is the perfect time for sharing love and good will.  It is possible you have a few extra dollars laying around or have decided to donate your weekly Starbucks allowance to a good cause, in which case I applaud both your fiscal responsibility and willpower! It is also highly possible that you are hoping the couch cushions start producing quarters in order to get you through the holidays.

Either way, I encourage you to not let your financial situation overshadow your desire to do something good for someone else. When it comes to giving back, there truly is no donation too small. So, are you ready to give back this holiday season? Your donation helps children and families throughout Missouri.
