'Tis The Season That's All About The Giving Not The Getting 🎁
It's that moment during the height of the commercial holiday season when you feel like something is missing. You think you're forgetting someone from your list, but alas it is you. You need something. Even though you have everything needed, what a great time to reflect and acknowledge that the giving doesn't have to stop. Before the year is over, or after one too many egg nogs, don't find fault in yourself if you feel like giving some more.

Samartian's Purse - This international organization is built on ministries that go above and beyond to help feed, give medical attention, build homes/schools, provide support to refugees in the most troubled areas of the world.
After researching, these charities are ones we believe in and have been noted via Charity Navigator to have valid scores in financials and public ratings. So, we wouldn't ask or suggest a group unless we researched its validity and efforts for its causes. We also selected charities that are not as super well known as others and could use a lot of extra love. GIVE GIVE GIVE!
