Each year, I write a holiday column suggesting small holiday contributions. Last year, MaryAnne Wahle read about Project Connect, which provides educational services to homeless children. Then families filled it with books and puzzles. Every day, it provides a safe and happy place for homeless children. Here is my list for 1999.
Every item provides the great gift of opportunity.
With discounts from the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks and toy manufacturers, that amount will provide an evening out at a hockey game and a holiday gift. Help a grieving child through the holidays. The candles are used in a holiday remembrance ceremony for family members who have died. Then they go home to be lighted for special occasions. Starbright, a closed computer network, offers them e-mail, games, educational sites, and most of all, a new friend sharing the same struggle.
