Charity Always Begins at Home The month of December is an active month for charities and organizations looking to get monthly pledges so as to continue doing the work they do. Whether it's for animals, children, or veterans. the work needs help and as the expression goes: You have no chance unless you ask. I get it, and we do it, most of which is locally with the church charities that feed the poor, through pantries. Even Santa's helpers with their red pots and bells in front of stores get assistance.

- 12/06/21 10:22 AM
Reach Out And Touch Someone: Andrea Swiedler The Challenge this month is to reach out and touch someone that has been noticeably absent from ActiveRain for a while. I venture that the object is to bring them back to the fold, but for me at least, it offered an opportunity to visit with a friend that is attributable 100% to ActiveRain. Andrea Sweidler, for many a year, was a fixture here on ActiveRain. But beyond her activities here, she was a person that would have remained an unknown to me even though we are only a few miles apart. I can honestly say that … (24 comments)
