The end of the year has come and only a few weeks are left until Christmas. I am happy to see more people reaching out to other families during our Economic Recession. This year we have had to endure changes and tightening of our financial belts. We are all in this Economic Crisis together. Let us all ‘kokua’ each other.
This year let us all focus on what is important to us. Not the material things, or the ton of Christmas gifts under the tree but the people who is important in our lives. Say thank you to the mail courier, ‘opala pickers and maintenance workers. Give your loose change to the Salvation Army’s red bucket.
I am not a rich person, but I am a mom and very busy like most, but would it hurt to stop and take a breath. With so many families struggling because of layoffs, and cutbacks, the need for ‘kokua’ is so important. This year I am asking “all of you” to help at least five individuals or families. If each one of use ‘kokua’ maybe we can lessen the families who are struggling this Holiday Season and every day. The benefits that you will receive will be much more rewarding than any other gift.
I have given to Lokahi, Salvation Army and I will be helping at Ka Hale A Ke Ola Homeless Resource Center. I have two more places to go. How many do you have? Please reach out and give.
Mahalo.
