For all of those giving to people that fell on hard times this year I'd like to Thank you. You really make a diffrence. On that note, I would like to ask for one thing. Please remember not all the people asking for help are lazy or trying to scam you. It is very hard to reach out and swallow your pride to ask for help so when someone accuses or assumes that everyone that asks for help is just lazy or trying to get as much as they can out of you, it really effects people I'n a negative way. It makes people that really truly need help not ask for it. I can tell you that this is the first year I have ever asked for help. I always give to others and never have treated them like less of a person or beneath me for needing help, but I can tell you that I have had the worst experience when it was me that needs help. I have never been treated so poorly or treated like the scum on the bottom of their shoes. I have never treated anyone like that and I don't care who they are or how much money you have it doesn't make you better or give you the right to look and talk down to others. I'm sorry there are SOME people out there just looking for the easy way or hand outs cause they are lazy but that's not all of us and if we didn't care about our kids and their happiness we wouldn't be trying so hard to give them what they deserve. Don't assume I'm on welfare or didn't go to collage. Don't tell me to go back to school or look for a job. You have no idea why I'm I'n this spot. I won't be using this as a resource every year and by next year I will be the one giving back once again like all the years before. No one ever knows when their life can turn upside down. It happends to the best. The difference is, some of us don't have family or friends to pull us out of it. Just please keep I'n mind that we all have pride and no one wants to have to ask for help but when someone does just remember it could be you. Just have respect and compassion. Thank you
