Encourage Giving

Help your children experience the joy of giving by getting them involved in a
service project. If your child has a talent or a hobby he or she can share with others, encourage using their talents to help others. Here are a few suggestions:

• Serve a meal at a shelter or food kitchen.
• Collect jackets, sweaters and coats for the homeless or migrant workers.
• Make a blanket for Project Linus. Website; www.projectlinus.org
• Help at an animal shelter.
• Become an Ombuddy and visit convalescent hospitals.

Teach your child to give from the heart not only to family, but to those less fortunate
too.
