It's Time For Annual Giving

As you hit the stores and buy your presents, don't forget to spend some of your time and money helping others.

Those who are trying to feed the hungry, clothe the homeless, teach the undereducated. So Others Might Eat. Share Our Strength. One Laptop At A Time.

What about those working to change the world one patient at a time? Doctors without Borders. Whitman-Walker Clinic. St. Jude's Childrens Hospital.

What about those who take care of those who don't have voices to tell us when they need help? The animal rescue organizations, like my friends at Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation.

And finally don't forget those who are stewards of the earth. The Nature Conservancy. World Wildlife Fund. The Sierra Club. Greenpeace.

So remember all these organizations - or your charity of choice - in the midst of all the other holiday craziness. Give back. Give of yourself. Just give. It's time.
