Do Now 11/18

I am inspired to help people whenever I get a chance to. I may not remember. But if I do, I will definitely spring into action. Last year I went to help out at the food drive for Moonachie Sandy victims. It was a great experience, helping people who needed it, and I would gladly do something like that again. Helping people has a way of making you feel great.

Philippians Devistation Do Now 11-11

There was recently a typhoon in the Philippians that was described by a local as "worse than hell." It destroyed houses, flooded the streets, and even caused thousands of deaths. This was an awful tragedy. Many people are trying to help in the effort, including marines, in giving food and water to the victims of the storm. Maybe that is how this class could make a difference. We could collect food and water and donate it to the relief efforts going on there. Just a little help could make a huge difference.
