As the holidays -- and all the yummy treats that most of us will be eating -- approach, I wanted to share with readers of my blogs two wonderful sites that help those who may not be feeling full during the holidays, or any time during the year for that matter.The first site, No Kid Hungry, is fledgling group with a good objective: www.nokidhungry.org. The leaders of the movement are asking visitors to their site to take a pledge to reach this goal by 2015.
The other site has been around for years (at least ten years) and does wonderful work: www.thehungersite.com, and I posted about it on H2Helper a while back. This site can be visited every day, and just by spending 2-3 minutes at the site, without any investment other than time, you can help feed hungry children worldwide, contribute to saving the rain forests, help autism research, promote literacy, support veterans, and help abandoned animals -- it is an amazing site.
Happy holidays!
Thanks for sharing Elizabeth!

Christmas is not just about stuffing ourselves and having a good time. Of course it is a joyous occasion, but we should remember those less fortunate than ourselves. I saw a television programme yesterday about Charles Dickens, and how his faith compelled him to write novels that highlighted inequalities in society. I was impressed. The themes he touched on in books like 'A Christmas Carol' are still relevant today.
