Ordinary People Making Extraordinary Differences

Everyone knows that the need is great in our day, because of COVID-19’s affect on our economy, and a variety of other factors. At the same time, we are seeing generosity from people in extraordinary and beautiful ways.  Day after day, people give what they have to make a difference here, and it is impacting the lives of ordinary people experiencing a moment of need.

A Special Birthday Party

Instead of receiving birthday presents on her 13th birthday, Natalie hosted a birthday parade, asking people to collect canned food for people in need. Natalie stood on her front lawn as car after car drove by, honking, waving, and dropping off the food. Natalie and her family brought the food to Mission Arlington^® yesterday, and presented it to Ms. Tillie.

We are Grateful for You

What an extraordinary young person. What a beautiful community. Thank you for the way each of you give, so that another life will be ok. We are grateful for you.
