Family Homelessness

Monday, March 3, 2014

Well -- here it goes…what's a blog?  I am always a little behind the times on figuring out this stuff.  I am not the most tech savvy individual.  Or the best writer.  But I DO have heart.  And that's what I have to share here.  I may not get my punctuation right.  I may actually add words to the existing English language -- but I know that I can share from my heart about our Outreach.  Hopefully, by doing this, we can all help families, and mostly kid, get through a very important time in their lives.  I have know MJ for several years.  We have both been involved in PTA with our kids schools.  MJ is much more involved then I have been.  She is an inspiration.  I have always felt the desire to help those less fortunate then I am.  I have struggled in my life, I have worked hard, and I now feel that I can offer my time to help others.  I struggle with my inability to "save the world", I guess I am a bit of an overachiever.  I have a generous spirit.  I want to help.  I want to spread joy.  I want to see smiles.  I feel that education and information are keys to succeeding.  My goal for HEART in Hand Outreach today is to spread the word.  I want to get into all of the schools.  I want to talk to counselors and teachers.  I want to hang out with students.  I want to empower PTA's to help us help the kids we see every day!  Kids are the future.  Period.  They have to know that regardless of their situation now -- that they can become anything they want.  They need to feel empowered to become what they dream of.  They need to learn that they are the one thing that they can count on every day -- they themselves are worthy and wonderful.  That the community may not be able to cure all of their ill's but that we care and that we can help make things a bit better.  This is my personal vision for HEART in Hand.  one step, one day, one smile at a time...
