Kids doing charity is a valuable lesson!!!

I think it is so important to teach our children to give beyond ourselves, to reach out and help those in need and to volunteer. We found this charity called "Hugs and Hope for sick children," so far as I can tell, it is not an actual non-profit, just a small charity that allows sick kids to register and they post their information so that people can send cards or gifts to them. The cards go directly to the kids, not to Hugs and Hope. So our kids are getting involved by making cards and writing letters and drawing pictures. We are going to send out a batch next week! So today, choose a charity with the kids and let them get involved, kids love to help, especially if they are helping other kids! Participate in the the kids charity with them and Live An Inspired Life!
