Hi All the computer Virus was worse than expected. My poor computer was wait listed to be repaired, so a lot of folks have been zapped this holiday season. I hope to have it today. My blogging everyday this month went out the window will try for everyday in January.
I spent Friday and Saturday at an expo (Phoenix Urban Expo) fundraising for the Cultural Cup Food Bank in Phoenix. A small food bank at Osborn and 7th Street that services the immediate area. I got 7 companies to hold food drives, send volunteers and go back and ask their companies to make a financial donation. I also got a pharmacutical representative to go back to her company and ask them to do a program they have going somewhere else, here. This program would help clients to the free clinic obtained needed medicines. I didn't make any moola this weekend, but I think the Universe will return it to me.
There is nothing I can think of during this time of year that's more heart renching than to stand at the door and tell a family that you have run out of food. So please make a donation, even if its only $5.00. They can do amazing things with 5 bucks. To donate to this nonprofit go to http://culturalcup.com they operate a free foodbank and clinic. They turn no one away, they will try and find someone food and its all volunteer.
So I'm well over my five $5.00 /5 hours for the month (more like 16). Now is the time to help others, if you do it no other time of the year, do it now. Where ever you are, no matter what you're going through, go help someone else. Helping others will allow you to step back from your problems, will give you a new outlook on your problems. After you help someone else it allows you to look at your situation with fresh eyes. You will be surprised at how much stronger you are to handle your situation after helping another. Your spirit and heart will be lighter.
The wirequeen is stepping off her soapbox. :) Find some small nonprofit working in the community that is doing good work. Donate some time and some cash. You be the one receiving the benefits.
