How many times have we heard this and thought how true this is! The joy I get from giving someone a heartfelt gift, time, or a shoulder to cry on is so much more rewarding and brings so much more joy than any materialistic gift. This is never more true than at Christmas time. There are so many people in need and with the holiday season upon us, it is so important to remember those who are often forgotten throughout the year.
There are many organizations that gear up at this ...]]></description>

There is no a better time of the year than the winter holiday season to involve children and teenagers in charitable giving and teach them why the old adage, “It is better to give than to receive,” is true.  World Vision offers five great ways for parents to lead by example and teach their children the true spirit of the holidays:
-    Consider do-it-yourself gifts, like no-sew fleece blankets that you can make with your children. Donate those blankets to a local homeless shelter.
-    Cherish the stories of your family. Have ...]]></description>

Most people think holiday gifts are meant to be wrapped with a bow, but the truth is that more than 800,000 people around the world were impacted by gifts last year through World Vision’s Gift Catalog that didn’t come with decorative paper or ribbon.
“The holiday season provides the perfect opportunity to honor a loved one and give a gift that has real-life implications on a family in need,” said Traci Coker, World Vision Gift Catalog national director. “As little as $16 can feed a family in the US for a ...]]></description>

I wanted to let you know about a nationwide philanthropic initiative designed to help American families in need. MyRegistry.com, the leading online universal gift registry service, is working with four women who have fallen upon financial hardships during their pregnancies and are not able to afford baby necessities. Donation registries have been created for each woman and their family. They are open to the public, so that the members of each community (or anybody, in any city, anywhere) can make contributions.

Did you know November is National Adoption Month? The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Children’s Bureau is partnering with AdoptUSKids and the Ad Council to educate potential adoptive parents on the benefits of adoption from foster care.

Hey guys!  The Love Drop team is at it again!  Last month they gave over $5,000 worth of cash  and goods to their recipient, Katie, who had been battling a couple of  brain tumors over the years, and it culminated with a surprise gift of  15+ friends showing up at her house to celebrate with her. It was  awesome. You can watch how it all went down here.



This month they start all over again and grow support for the Kahlen&#8217;s &#8211; a family who has been ...]]></description>
