Day 11, GIVING TO THE POOR

[Tuesday]

The tradition of alms or giving to the poor is common to a number of religions. At a time of year when there is a high concentration of giving it is good and right we remember the needs of others and share our wealth.

We really like the opportunity to give sustainably and practically to the poorest of the poor through the TEAR catalogue. Our dollars go so far in the third world.

Another practical activity that you can do with the kids are help them recycle some current toys to an op shop.

Here’s some other practical and crafty ideas for coins and notes…
