An opportunity to give to others this holiday
While the need exists throughout the year, it is near the holidays that we most often think of our neighbors, near and far, who are in need. If you're not sure what to buy for your beloved this holiday season, then an alternative I'd recommend is considering donating either money, new or used items, or best of all, your time, to God's Helping Hands in Rochester Hills, Michigan.
This organization provides, food, clothing and many other household items for those in need in our community. They pre-screen those they serve to ensure that true need exists, and then through the generosity of numerous volunteers, they assist them by providing a safe, no-judgement place to get the essential items our neighbors need.

Consider getting involved on a regular basis. This is an excellent way to spend an afternoon with your friends, your sweetheart or your church group. If you want to learn more, get in touch with me and I'll get you started.
