There will be two I’ll be supporting this year. First is our local food pantry, for when we needed the help not long ago, they were there. The second is http://www.indegoafrica.org/ – an organization near and dear to my baby girl’s heart and mine.

This year instead of buying another “thing” for the adult brothers and sisters, we are giving money in their name to Samaritan’s Purse (www.samaritan’spurse.org) to buy chicks for families in need.

We participate in Operation Christmas Child and this year we received a Gift Catalog from Samaritan’s Purse. They have listed 43 items you can buy for people in need ranging from $4 for milk to $25,000 to build a school.

A $14 ‘whatever’ item means little to someone in our country, but $14 to buy a dozen chicks can be life changing for someone in need.
I want to be part of changing lives this Christmas.

Here’s a link to International Justice Mission’s Christmas page. You can give the gift of freedom for someone held in oppressive situations (sex trafficking, brothels, work camps, etc) by donating in someone’s name for Christmas. Love it:

It’s not a huge “cause” but right now we’re really focusing on families we know that need some help. We have so many friends who have been thrown terrible curve balls this past year. Cancer, becoming a single mom suddenly, job loss, giving birth too early and spending lots of time at the NICU… so I think we’re going to focus on helping locally.

I didn’t really answer the question. Excuse my ramblings… if I had to pick just one cause to donate/help with it’d be our local children’s hospital Children’s Hospital of Boston

Not just because Amber suggested it but because my heart was tugged when we were at the Aaron Ivey home tour.

Can I just say I LOVE “incarnational celebration?”

The narrow down to one thing is hard, but I know we will be supporting our very local food crisis ministry, which does not appear to have a website. It provides immediate food assistance to people in need in the northern part of our county.

Katie, I’m not slick with my facebook skills, but I know you can become a fan and then suggest that all your facebook friends follow ChristmasChange.
