Why Give on the Holiday Season
Its November 22 we have 6 days till Thanksgiving while many of us are excited of what our families will do for the Thanksgiving all the meals they are preparing many aren't so fortunate.Many times people will judge and talk bad on people with federal aid and people who ask for money not understanding what sometimes people go through. I grew up in the Santa Maria Valley where most families are low income families who just manage to pull through and be lucky to be able to afford food. My dad always taught me to be human to those people because someday you might just be in there position. I have witness my dad hand money and I have too because I am lucky enough to have a roof while many don't even have one. CNBC did a research on 2016 that 42 million people go to sleep hungry according to Feeding America. To me it seems a incredible amount because with so many people flexing their Gucci and Jordans on social media it almost covers up the fact that poverty and hunger is real. My plan for this Thanksgiving is to go to the Vets Hall in 313 W. TUNNELL ST, on Monday at 2 pm to go help out. I encourage whoever reads this will go and do their share.
After all we all are human and fortunate to have food lets help those who need it. We don't know their back story so lets
not forget they all have one. Hope to see some of you there.
