Helping Others In This Economy

November 25, 2008

I’m wondering how badly food pantries, shelters and charities that normally generate a big chunk of dough during the holiday season will suffer as a result of the messed up economy.

As the wife of one of the thousands if not millions of laid off husbands, it’s tough to think about breaking free of even $5.00 to drop in the bucket as I leave the grocery store.

But, I do know, from all my years in Catholic School :) and just living on this earth that you do reap what you sow.

Even some of my favorite Internet Marketers are planning to use Twitter and other ‘connective’ online tools to generate awareness and funds for holiday charity events.  The gals at the SWBN (Secret Women’s Business Network) are supporting Twitter For Christmas #TFC.  Great idea Sheryl and SWBN gals!
