In this edition, Holly from Help Our World has some holiday suggestions. For starters, she has a New Years resolution that is simple, effective, and easy to keep. Simply take the pledge! Go to www.tcpi.com and click on the Change A Light Pledge. Fill out and submit the brief form pledging to fight global warming by changing your light bulbs. You’ll see how easy it is to reduce carbon emissions, save electricity, and reduce your electric bill.
Oh, and while you are at it, do you really need another sweater this holiday season? How about another book for your birthday? Help Our World, or HOW for short, has a few environmentally conscious gift suggestions for Christmas, Hanukah, birthday, or any other holiday.
Holly from HOW suggests giving a gift in a loved-one’s name to somebody in need. Think about it. While you already have a closet full of the latest fashions, somebody might not have a coat to keep themselves warm. While your room is full of the latest toys and gadgets, somebody might need school supplies.
Or have a cash party. Instead of gifts, collect cash for charity. It’s fun. It’s helpful. And it’s sure to help somebody in need.
So take a look online, or even in the good-old-fashioned phone book. We’re sure you will find a charity that meets your sense of giving.
Happy Holidays!
