In today’s world, you will find rich and successful people. Some may appreciate what they have and some take things for granted. Then you have the people that just get by but have the means to be happy. There also are the needy people who require other people and some form of assistance to get by.
So I say give a little, Since Christmas is coming up go support a charity and help others. In The Buffalo News published the article, ” The needy need you”. The greater the need, the fewer people are able to help. Since the holidays are coming around there are many things people can do to give to people who are in need. ” The neediest Fund needs the help of all who can give to help make the holiday season a little cheerier for families who can’t afford presents for children or a special holiday meal.” Anyone interesting in getting involved, The Buffalo News 26th annual drive has begun for 2007, seeking donations of gifts for children of various ages and cash to buy 12,000 dinners and other perishable foods. The newspaper also states that a family’s needs that people help ends up life changing. ” Emma D. Sapong reports last year the neediest fund help ends out a family, the mother Debpra Merchant is still grateful for making last Christmas happened. Debora says her kids got everything they wished for and more if it wasn’t for News Neediest fund. The total earnings last year bought holiday dinners for 12,000 to 150,00, through the food bank of Western New York.
What I found interesting is at West there are so many things going on to help out someone. We have a giving tree, which is a tree in the front foyer and children’s name are on the tree and you pick a child and you buy a Christmas gift for them. We have the can food drive; we collect can goods, boxes and etc. to help out others so they have a nice Christmas dinner like the most of us.
To find more suggestions to help out people who need you, I recommend looking in the Buffalo news, because they have something new everyday for you to get involved, So I say take a chance and help someone for the holiday. It’s about helping out others then your self and feeling good about what you have accomplished. So get involved if it maybe community service, donating money, getting involved in a charity or at your school.
