It's not much, about $500 a week. But still, to be able to help out what little we can afford and actually give to people who need it. There is nothing better than the holidays.  |
Weve got that as well, you can even see the thread I made some yrs ago. Weve adopted a girl in the Phillipines, Vanessa. Unbelievable how little money is able to get the whole family a better live. Weve done this through children.org way better then some bigass origanisation, Ive got pics of her drawings stories, we gave her a toilet last year too weird but the family lived ina house without a toilet.
Anyhow thats not too special, we decided to share a part of our profits to this family long ago.
Still its good to hear more ppl do that.
