I went today to talk to the teachers at Princess' school. i think i mentioned before that they (the 8th grade "team") was considering USA Cares at their community service project for the year. I spoke to them today and they all seemed very excited about it and are already coming up with some ideas about ways for the kids to be involved!!
It's not just that USA Cares will benefit from the help, but this is more about getting our youth involved and them knowing that they make a difference and can and should feel a responsibility in giving back.
A few ideas that were thrown around were having a Veterans Tree around the holidays, having "Wear Red on Fridays" days and making some blankets for the Operation Lap Wrap that USA Cares does. This is an idea that can be done by anyone, anywhere. This one happens to be taking place in a school, but it can be done by people in any setting. Just take a look at what these people are doing!
It warms my heart so much to know there are people excited about this organization like I am.
