Day 2: How could you help someone less fortunate on Thanksgiving, or anytime of the year?
I've had a friend who lost her job and thus lost her house earlier this year that I brought into my house. She has 2 children, a 7 year old and a 3 year old, one of her children has ADHD and even with a doctors note her job fired her and didn't have the money to make the rent payment so lost her apartment So I brought her and her kids into my house til she found a job and a new place to go. She stayed with my boyfriend and I for 3 months before she had another place to stay and was employed again.
Currently I have a friend who's staying with me. She was promoted to a Assistant Manager job and was transferred to a store about a mile from my house but had no place to stay. So while she's saving up money from being in a Management position to find somewhere to buy or rent she's staying with me and helping me to take care of my home and with food and bills.
When I'm not trying to help my friends I donate gently used clothing to Good Will, CASA, and drives for homeless who need clothing. I also donate food to food drives when I can.
