Today
I spent the morning cleaning out my closet and shopping for food for the hurricane victims. I ended up with 9 boxes today, not too shabby. The man we're sending them with finally found his nephew, the last of his relatives that were missing. He did however, come upon a family of abou 150 people who only had one house standing between the lot of them and needed help desperately. So Tuesday we'll be giving them all of the extras our family just doesn't need and then some. I like knowing that my donations are being put to use instantly and knowing someone will see the results. I packed up t-shirts, tanks tops, jeans, shorts, capri's, socks, shoes, underwear, boxer shorts, granola bars, pop-tarts, snack crackers, spam, tuna fish, vienna sausages, pens, pencils, trash bags, tape and 5 brand new bibles, but most importantly I packed in those 9 boxes HOPE. Hope for their future. Hope for their children's future. Hope for our nation's future.
Hat's off to Liberty County and their efforts, here's just a few of the things I saw today...
