Pre-vote to you

[Sandy D]

Received the amazon gift card. Thanks to everyone that voted for me.

I am donating this to the needy family we sponsored for Christmas, I will match it with another 250.00 so their family will have a nice Christmas.

This was lots of fun!!

[shaddypro1]

Wow these carvings came out so good

[Sandy D]

Just a quick share.

We donated the 250.00 prize money to a family in need for Christmas.

I received a call from that family today thanking us for helping them buy some items for their kids and it also allowed them to buy a ham and fixings for Christmas dinner.

Once I found out what they needed it was not an Amazon gift card, they needed money for certain items for their kids and for Christmas dinner items so I donated the 250.00 in a gift card they could use.

It is a local charity we always help and the person who runs it screens the people to make sure they are in need.

Our family we sponsored ran out of unemployment benefits month ago and needed the help badly.

So thanks to everyone WE ALL JUST FED A FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS and allowed them to purchase a few gifts for their kids.


They also sent pictures of their dinner and gifts under the tree.

Awesome feeling being able to help others.

We sponsor a family every year like this and just found out the 8 year old needs new tires for her bike according to the people who run the charity event. They asked the girl if she got what she wanted for Christmas and she said yes. Only wish Santa brought tires as my tires on my bike are flat because it has holes.


We as a family are going to purchase 2 brand new bikes tomorrow for those kids and drop them off at their house!

[aspkin]

That's awesome, thanks Sandy.

It's the little things and showing you care that make a HUGE impact on a person or group of people not expecting.

[An0nym0u$]

Thank you for the share and follow up.

[rsot]

Family fed nice and classy - warm feelings

[Sandy D]

We purchased the bikes for the two kids and I thought instead of just taking them to the family I would find a way the Mom and Dad could give them to the kids.

So we worked that out so now the parents can give the kids the bikes without knowing anyone was ever involved and Mom and Dad get credit.

Great people, just down on their luck and he needs a job.

Thanks everyone. We were all able to touch someones life and lend a hand.

That's awesome Sandy!! It's a great feeling you get when you help someone else out thats going through hard times. I once donated to a cause and I remember the woman that was collecting the money told me an interesting quote that I won't forget. It went something along the lines, "people often call people who don't give anything selfish, but in reality it us who are selfish, the giving, for the satisfaction i get from putting a smile on these peoples faces is like no other."

Received a thank you card today from this family.

Pictures of the kids smiling like crazy.

Makes me so happy to see kids smiling like this.

Working on doing something for them (kids ) for Valentines Day.

Reminds me of Simpsons:
