Giving Back During the Holidays

Thanksgiving is around the corner, which indicates that it is the start of the holiday season. For many, this time of the year is joyful and memorable. Other individuals do not feel this way, since they are in need of food, clothing or toys. It is important to take time and help others in your community.
