The Gift of Service

The Holiday season is a perfect time for you to give the gift of service. Offering your time or making a donation to a worthy cause will not only make others feel better, but also make you feel better too. There are numerous organizations or ideas for you to look into this season. Here are just a few:

1. Toys for Tots ~ They take brand new donated toys and distribute them to children. You can donate in any area where a Marine Corps Reserve Unit is located.

2. Make-A-Wish Foundation - They make the wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions come true. 

3. Seattle Union Gospel Mission - The Mission provides basic services like meals to the homeless in Seattle.

These are just a few suggestion. Whether you want to contribute your time and energy through monetary donations or with gifts, there is a service project to match your needs and schedule so check your area to see how you can help.

The Central Gallery is a jewelry-making collective I'm a member of. We participate in a birthday luncheon for seniors sponsored by The Central Senior Center located in Seattle. To help with fundraising, we sell jewelry at the luncheon and donate a percentage of our sales back to the Center.
