Who did some charity work this year and what did ya do?

It seems that this time of year is all about receiving and giving to those we know and love however did anyone think about someone they dont know.

I thought is was cool that people were going into Target and paying off layaway plans for strangers.

As I stated in a thread a year ago, I qualifed for SS of a whopping $749 per month.(I BARELY paid enough income taxes to qualify). I give it away each month, because I'd rather stimulate the economy that let the govt do it. Several on BP have suggested worthy recipients, and I've gladly complied.
For this month, we purchased a complete cooked meal at Albertsons. Our funds covered 15 families. I have a friend that manages a big box store with a Tree of needy families. Donors were selecting the family card to take care of toys-we took care of the meal. Delivering them this afternoon and evening. Great feeling to surprise folks! Rich
