Live Life with a Purpose by Volunteering in Your Community

“Why am I here?” – how many of us have asked ourselves that question?  I know I have.  One way to live your life with a purpose is to perform volunteer work in your community.  Karen Moyer, co-founder of The Moyer Foundation (a Seattle-based non-profit organization dedicated to helping children in distress) believes there are incredible personal benefits to volunteer work, “Through the Foundation, I have the opportunity to live my passion for helping children in distress and help make a difference in the world – living life with purpose gives meaning to both my personal and professional life – they are intertwined.”

Help Others During the Holidays

My husband and I hosted our annual holiday party last Saturday night. We wanted to do something to help those in need so we asked our guests to bring food donations for our local food bank. Wow! They loved the idea and broughts lots of donations. Six HUGE boxes that filled the back of our Jeep Cherokee! It was a wonderful, warming, rewarding feeling when we delivered the boxes to the food bank on Monday. I've decided to make the same request for every party we host. If you're hosting a holiday party ask your guests to bring food donations. It's a good thing!

Warmly,
