Instead of giving presents this year, I will be sponsoring the homeless on my family and friends' behalf.
The Vancouver Homeless website has profiles of the homeless along with their Christmas list. Most of the items are everyday necessities like blankets, shoes, and cooking utencils.
Helping is easy. Just print out the form, fill it out and send it along with the items listed.
I am officially banning Christmas. I can't stand the consumerism any more, so no one will be getting presents this year. There will be no Christmas decorations, no tree, and no Christmas dinner. I don't understand why we need Christmas to feel giving and kind. We can all do this throughout the year.
