This Christmas 🎄 consider the gift of GIVING... cause isn't that what its all about?!?
I am so so grateful for my job and the ability to stay safe working from home.
I was born in Canada at a time when war, uncertainty and much more were not I have ever had to worry about!

There are so many people who will have a tough Christmas this year because they have lost thier jobs, can't find work, cant see family, will struggle to put food on their table, etc.
I know many affected by Covid & it hurts to think about how hard it will be for them & others

In thinking about those with uncertainty and hardships, this year my family has decided to fore go the usual gifts (that no one will likely use anyways) & GIVE. All $$$ we would have spent on a gift will be donated to a charity of my choosing in their name.

I'm excited to try to find something special that matches their personalities...
I.e. My one niece loves cooking...so I'm going to give to @winnipegharvest
And another niece is into Art, @UnitedWayWpg ArtCity will be a great one for her.

Will be fun writing up a little story about why I gave to each organization and what it means. I will wrap it up in a fun way for something to unwrap on Christmas morning!

I ENCOURAGE each and everyone of you who can help to consider the same.
Let's make someone's Christmas a little brighter.
Remember there's no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end. ~
