Subject: Thanksgiving
Every year at Thanksgiving we make some kind of donation to the needy. It is
a family tradition. It began in the 1940's when I went out with a wagon to
collect cans of food for the dock workers who were on strike and had no income
for months.While I was in school I always invited someone home for the holidays
our choir always gave a concert
While teaching in Bedford Stuyvestant I brought several children home for
the day. These children came from families who were living ten people to a
room.Later i would donate clothing to the womans Abuse centers in various
cities
across America.
While teaching in Bay Ridge we collected cans of food and every class
bought a turkey and decorated a basket. These baskets were donated to the
neediest
neighborhood families.
Every year I make a donation of goods and time to the salvation army. The
time is usually several hours either at the soup kitchens or down by the
stores.
I started making some donations to the area of dogs a
bout ten years ago. Bogs of food for some of the shelters. Pictures for the
rescue calendar and finally the 9/11 poster.This year I donated five days of
time(2 for driving) and five majors.
We know you have a good heart, Norma, as do most of the listers. We just
don't like to hear you drove so far for a show and pulled your bitch and
deprived
an entry, doubtless as deserving as yours, of a major.
It has happened to me and I hate the feeling.
