We got together with D's family over the weekend for an early Christmas celebration. For the holidays the adults always opt for charitable donations in lieu of gifts. This year D and I chose the Sick Kids Foundation for his aunt, uncle and cousins.
For each couple we donated $45 which covers the cost of a holiday meal for a family who will be spending Christmas at the hospital. Even better, over the weekend another foundation was matching every donation, so the donation was doubled. I couldn't imagine having a little sick child, never mind spending the holidays in the hospital. Sadly, it is the reality for many, and it felt nice knowing that we were able to hopefully bring a little bit of Christmas cheer, to those families needing it most.
There are terrific gifts available to help those in need starting at just $15.
