Spreading Cheer After The Holidays

ADVERTISEMENT

Published: January 6, 2009

Who does not receive one, two or even 10 items during the holidays that we cannot use - items ranging from clothing, appliances, knick-knacks, food baskets, kitchenware, toiletries, etc.? The unwanted list is staggering.

Instead of returning, exchanging or just tossing these new items, I proposed that deserving charities such as Metropolitan Ministries declare the week after Christmas "National Re-Gift to the Needy Week."

Let's place donation sites conveniently throughout the community and distribute the items to those who truly need and appreciate our unwanted gifts.
