Yesterday, I wrote of an organization in Illinois that has been helping during the holiday season for over 30 years.
Today, the focus is on the Bay Area Rescue Mission, in California, which has been in the business of helping those in need all year round since 1965!
The Mission offers meals, beds, job training, and other needed services all through the year, but it is during the weeks of Thanksgiving and Christmas that they rev up in order to serve thousands of traditional meals to those who would not otherwise have any.
I know there are other organizations out there, across the U.S. and perhaps the world whose scope is to help the less fortunate. Reading about their efforts to ease a burden, provide a meal, a bed, or a service is a heartwarming experience.
