There is still time to help someone for the Holiday's

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

It is not to late to help someone in need for this Christmas Season.  

Just remember...It doesn't have to be monetary.  I helped a neighbor today cut wood for an elderly couple.  He broke a leg and can't get wood into the house and the fixed income would be all taken up with the cost of fuel.

My wife and I have taken on two families for the Christmas Season and that set us back even more than we budgeted for.

But, I am still up to help someone that needs physical work done.

So, get out your work clothes and just give a hand...it is needed by many!

Just be careful when helping.  Ending up like this helps no one!

Great idea. No need to be the deer in the headlights, right! Which is how I feel so often when trying to decide what to give during the holidays. Give back to those who need it most.

Great job, Bill. That is so awesome. I know, from personal experience, that cutting firewood is a lot of work. We mostly burn wood in the winter. As a matter of fact, I have to get a fire going soon. It's been pretty warm during the day, but most nights are getting down in the 20s.

Today I went shopping for family Christmas gifts, and gifts for the 5 year old girl I adopted from The Angel Tree. It was a lot of fun. I got all the presents for the little girl bought and already dropped off at The Garden Center. It was a big bag of stuff, but I hit the sales right, and one little Delta County girl, in the foster care system, is going to have a nice Christmas.

Bill...

A gift of help can be so much more rewarding than money. Good post for the season!

Bill, so many people need the help more than a monetary gift.  A gift of your time is special!

You're right - sometimes it's more about the time and effort you can give, not the money.

Good post.  Yes, we should all help out.  Poor guy in the hospital.  He's probably a Realtor who slipped on someone's unshoveled walk.
