Weekends are just not long enough… Our weekend went by too fast and I can’t really tell you what I did, as it went by in a blur. It was filled with going to kids’ activities, washing clothes, cooking dinner, going to Church and of course watching football.
Unfortunately, I don’t know that I did anything meaningful for anyone else or myself for that matter. I am sure my nephew appreciated me attending his football game, but I always want to have good intentions to be a mentor, do service and give back in some small way that makes a difference. I just don’t know how to fit it in.
I am looking for something challenging to do on the weekend that will help me give back to the community in some small way and doesn’t require a lot of time…
If anyone has something meaningful that they do or ways that they give back, please let me know.
Peace and Love,
Sandals
Hey Sandals---
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite organizations is Chicago Cares. They offer many opportunities to volunteer in Chicago on Saturdays as well as other days. Here's the link to their site http://www.chicagocares.org/index.asp . You should be able to find a project.
There is also an organization called Bottomless closet (provides assistance for women reentering the workforce). James Jordan Club (Chicago) is also looking for volunteers to help in the afternoons from 2:00p.m-6:00p.m
ReplyDeleteHi Ladies,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great feedback. I will definitely pass this information along to the Village.
