I'm so glad you started this thread, binky...
I wanted to find some way for my kids to give back during the holidays (even moreso than they do throughout the year) so this came at a perfect time...
We just got a note in the kids' school bags that the church's pantry is bare (as well as most of the pantries in our Archdiocese) and with the holidays approaching they are in desparate need of food for food baskets, especially with how bad Michigan's economy is doing (as well as the rest of the country)...but I wanted the kids to do something "more".
The idea of bringing gifts/cards to a retirement home is wonderful...and I think I'm going to enlist the help of some of the kids friends to bring cheer to a few men and women who may not have families...
