I try to recognize daily that my life is very blessed, and I try to show gratitude daily. One of the best ways we can show gratitude is to pay it forward to others who may need some sunshine in their lives. It brings joy to others and it brings joy to me! I felt very led to shine the spotlight on some of the charities I respect, so I can show you how I give back and hopefully inspire you to look at these charities!

Blessings in a Backpack helps to provide food for elementary school students on the weekends when they otherwise might not have the regular meals that schools provide in the week. Blessings in a Backpack states that 1 in 5 kids in the United States face food insecurity; they have no idea where or when their next meal will come. Blessings in a Backpack believes that every child should be nourished in order to grow and learn to their fullest and healthiest potential. You can provide monetary donations to make sure a child facing hunger can be fully fed every weekend. You can also volunteer or start a program if there’s not already one in your area.
The Sierra Club is the nation’s largest environmental organization, and they promote protections for the environment and wildlife. They help lead our leaders to make decisions that will protect our environment and educate others on how they can contribute. You can provide donations of many different amounts and you can even join local chapters to get even more involved in protecting our environment, our most precious resource.
