Share Our Strength

There should be no child in this great Nation of ours going Hungry.! We
have 95 % of the World's Wealth and though, I understand why we assist
other Countries in this cause, and others we should take care of our own
before coming to the aid of the Third World. Then, Let's assist Countries
like Ethiopia,Afghanistan and Iraq. Hunger and poverty have always been
social problems for the U.S,despite Us being one of the 5 Super Powers.
I have always done what I could to help others and get involved in Fund
raisers when I can. . Back in the 80's I helped raise money for both MDA
and the AHA by dancing the night away. The MDA Dance-a-thon was 24 hours
and I was exhausted,yet it was so much fun.! I really got down and boogied
lol.
In addition to those, Darrell and I have donated to the Red Cross after
9-11 and now Today we donated $10 to feed a few starving Children. ( We
were not happy with how our Dollars were spent after and I think so were
many people) We were going to participate in the "Share the Strength
Dine Out" and dine this evening at the Lone Star Steakhouse in Mesa.
However, it is not very practical. The food sounds delicious but it is,
expensive. Due to our Economic situation ,we really should not. Speaking of
Economics, Hope you all watched the Debate? Will write more about all that
later. We were mostly going to help the kids. Perhaps, we can have Dinner
there,another time.
Moreover, if your able and would like to Donate to this cause ,click the
link I enclosed below. I will also attach some facts about our starving
Children.
Today,just going to relax and later, we will be participating in the VR
Stream Virtual Party on ACB Radio. Dougie and I both attempted to write a
dose for you all last night ,yet neither one of us is feeling creative at
the moment
Perhaps the creative juices will flow later today?,sometime this weekend I
hope?. Meanwhile, look below and do what you can to help the hungry
children,if your able. I will write again another time. .
