Winter is coming and so are the crowds, cold and expenses. It seems that the best part of the holiday is the look on the recipients face as they receive a gift or one that doesn't involve you going broke or paying for months after it's over.

We know that expenses are a part of the holidays, so why not make this holiday the most memorable by helping others?





There are simple ways to make every holiday one to remember. Starting a family tradition that involves helping others is a great place to start. 

 

 5 Ways To Give Back On The Holidays

1. Pick names from a hat of those in need and have a set amount for a gift from adults and a craft from a child to deliver to the person they chose.
2. Enjoy a holiday dinner and have each person tell the family what they are grateful for.
3. Make a holiday dinner for a needy or lonely neighbor and deliver it or invite them over for dinner
4. Give new toys to children/adults in the cancer unit or Toys for Tots.
5. Deliver a coat or sweater to someone in need.

Helping others during the holiday is what makes us stronger as a community. Remembering those that are less fortunate will bring more blessing your way than you can imagine. The feeling of giving alone is a gift that is unlike any other. Just try it and you will see what I mean.

Giving is contagious and such a wonderful feeling. What will you give to make someone else smile and feel wanted? It doesn't take much; even a warm smile or hug is always appreciated. Happy Holidays!
