Making a Difference

How do I plan on making a difference? I always know that I will make a difference each and every year. Sometimes I do the same things; other times I add something or hear about something worthy of involving myself in and I do it or a group of us do it. One of the things we love doing at least once a year is visiting our friends at the Ronald McDonald House of Southern NJ. We bring lots of my books to gift out to the patients and their families and also cook dinner for all the families that are staying there. It is so heartwarming to spend an evening with these folks who are going through such traumatic times and everyone who joins me looks forward to our next visit. My husband, my friends, and I like to support local fundraisers when we can. Also, visiting Gilda’s Club in Lynwood, NJ is a good time as well. I keep an ear opened for people who think someone’s family could use a shoulder to lean on and try to visit CHOP when I can. I like to feel that I am making a difference.
