Just wondering if anyone here makes a donation to a national or local Charity during the Christmas Season.
I give to my local Salavation Army every Christmas. They have what's called the Christmas Angel Program,where you take an angel tag off of a Christmas tree located in over 40 differnet stores and churches. On the tag is listed the first name of the person, and it tells you what they want as a present. It can be from a infant and goes up to a senior citizen. The tag tells you the first name, age and what size of clothing that they wear. I always take a senior citizen, for they tend to be looked over. They usually list more than one thing. Those tags that are not taken, the Salavation Army will buy them what they asked for. One year I got an 80 year old lady and all that she wanted was yarn, stamps, and some note cards. This year the tag that I took was a 78 year old woman asking for for some flannel PJ's, a jogging suit and some cologne. I like giving this way because I know that it is going locally, and that they will be getting a gift for sure on Christmas Day. These are very needly people who must be really down and out to meet the criteria to receive any gifts. I have been doing this going on now for over 10 years. It's the one part of Christmas shopping that I look forward to doing, for I it makes me feel good that I can help someone out, who will not be getting any kind of Christmas, what so ever.
