ALTRUISM !
Just wanted to let you know of a program started here in San Diego that is doing a lot of good and spreading viraly across the USA and through several Talk Shows -
It supports the families of our men and women that have been called off to serve - support the war or not, this program is only trying to help those poor souls left behind - and that is waaaaay to many as I have been hearing.
It is called Operation Homefront and it only asks that you help with the families of service personal that have met insurmontable problems trying to cope w/o the supporting spouse - cars crapping out, household fixit needs . . . Neighborhoods, businesses and indivuals get together and try to support however one is able to: provide transportation or move something, donating washers, beds, computers, food, time . . . .
The stories of need and attempts to muddle through are enough to bring a tear to anyones’ eye !
The amount of people selflessly volunteering what they can has been eye opening, heartwarming and really challenges your better qualities to reach down deeper and HELP -
Some additional info on really making a positive impact, and possibly helping to set a similar situation into play in your neighborhood can be found through http://www.rogerhedge****.com/homefront.html -
Thanks so much in advance
Mike
