Giving back to others

 


A few weeks ago I saw this picture and remembered where I was years ago, A single mother with a young daughter. 

Nights came and go leave me constantly crying myself to sleep and thinking about paying my bills and buying groceries.

I laterally lived on a budget to make sure everything was paid. I kept it all to myself instead of asking for help, but I was lucky enough to have a great job.

Years have pasted and I was  able to pull myself out of that place  between choosing a roof over our heads and groceries. 

Now that I am able to give back to the SINGLE PARENTS/FAMILIES so they can worry about one less thing, I knew I needed to teach my daughter to give back to others.


My challenge this Christmas is to get as many of my friends to pick items/similar items from the picture and fill a box(GET YOUR KIDS INVOLVED), and post your box on your social media (challenge your friends/followers too). This year especially we should be giving back because of the pandemic, imagine there are families out there who have to choose between a roof, bills and groceries. Plus families with young children who may not understand what's going on and mom/dad can not afford a toy or food on Christmas morning. WE CAN HELP ! 

MAKE IT A FAMILY NIGHT AND FILL YOUR BOX SO A FAMILY CAN HAVE THIER FAMILY NIGHT OVER DINNER!

The paperwork and financing was made easy thanks to my future father in law.  Early January we started packing all of his grandmother stuff  into boxes which is allocated for shipping to his aunts and tostorage. Imagine packing stuff for aunts who lives in other provinces over the phone. CRAZY right! Mid January we start moving her furniture into storage units and of course it had to be the two coldest weekends and being in the pandemic we couldn't have anyone helping us. My fiance and his 68 old father and I moved the furnitures while his mother prep food for us. IT WAS COLD, WINDY AND TOOK ALOT OF EFFORT BUT...
