My parish church adopts 125 families each year and provides them with food baskets and toys for the children. Parish members and their families raise funds, assemble the baskets, wrap the gifts, and deliver everything to those in our area "who need a hand." The parish also hosts a Christmas party attended by residents of the Magnificat Houses here in the city. Some 120-125 persons enjoy a dinner, choirs caroling, and visiting with parish members. I participate in these activities each year. Pat Cochran I try to do my “giving” closer to home. My parish

I have always believed we are so fortunate, that we should share what we have and give of our time. Our children grew up volunteering and now that they are on their own, they continue to be involved with worthy programs. Our oldest daughter walked in the Breast Cancer 3 day walk in DC last year. She was on crutches for a week or so afterwards (she twisted her knee), but she finished and raised a nice amount of money. We work with Catholic Charities, my husband has built over 30 bookcases for our library, and we help supply the clothes closet at the local VA home which supplies the residents and homeless veterans. This year our church angel tree has three times as many children listed as it did last year. We took 2 girls and 2 boys 10 to 11 years old. I have an 11 year old grandson, and he will have a lot of fun helping me shop for them. We don't exchange many gifts within the family. We help each other all year long and get little gifts for each other when we feel like it. The children will get gifts, but the focus of the day is church and getting together as a family.

They truly believe in what they're doing. Jill's House sounds like a very special place and worthy of your efforts. Bless you and your husband! Hi Victoria,

We've become a very judgmental society I'm afraid. But I too believe it's crucial not to judge someone until we walk a mile in their shoes. And some of the most seemingly unlikely givers have the biggest hearts. That's just amazing to me. Bless you and your husband for your practice of giving! You'll be rewarded. Hi Charlene,
