Who really received the gift?

For several years, we have collected clothing and served on the buffet line for those in need. But we are the real recipients of the gift, knowing that the needy appreciate the clothing, food and spirit of the Holiday season.

Gave me a purpose for Christmas season, avoiding the usual stress of shopping, spending, etc.

Being involved with Christmas For Everyone gave me a non-threatening topic of conversation when meeting newcomers and anyone I meet, regardless of their background or profession.
