It's the Holiday's

OK so this year, I am so into the season. I myself am just starting in life and dont have much, But I know there are other's out there who have less then My family and I.....

So I am wondering if MARS does any type of donations to the needy for the holidays. I know we are doing a white elephant on the 15th. So I was thinking we could bring a small cheap toy, some gently used coats and clothes, Baby Items like diapers, bottles, wipes and such.


Let me know what you guys think and if this could work.

We could try and find a family or take it to a local charity house?

This is too important to be pushed down the list.


I know some people have to have clothes that they dont wear anymore in closet or attic in a box.

Let's Pay it forward and help other's who can use the help.

I gotta lotta clothes that need new homes and bodies to keep warm. If someone was willing to haul it to the charity we could all just bring the clothes for that person to deliver. The person that choses to do this will have the satisfaction that he/she was instramental in making this happen, and when they get there they will be the one who will personally be associated with this delivery and have the great feeling for doing something positive/charitable for someone who needs help.

I would like to do this and take the items donated to a local charity.

Is the holiday party on the 15th, which is a friday.

If so I can collect coats, clothing and food donations there and take them to be donated.
