Bring a lunch to someone

firefighters, and even some
retail workers.

Run an errand for a
neighbor. You know how
busy this season can be
and that money can be
tight. Offer to pick up their
groceries, drive them to
an appointment, walk
their dog, or help them
put up their Christmas
lights so things be a little
less hectic for them.

If you have plenty to eat
and a place at your table,
sometimes the nicest thing
you can do is invite
someone to join you. If you
know someone who has
nowhere else to go this
holiday season, let them
know they can sit with you
for a warm meal and company.
