It comes to a close....

After 7 weeks of working to improve the holiday season for homeless female Veterans, and to bring much-needed attention to their cause, our project is coming to a close. Tomorrow, I will be at school bright and early to hand off the tree and accompanying gifts to a representative from Final Salute Inc. While nothing we can contribute will ever be enough to help this deserving group, we feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to become more familiar with this group and with the people at Final Salute who are working tirelessly to help them. As Final Salute's founder emailed recently, "Giving is never too small, everything makes a difference in their lives". This is a sentiment we should all carry with us. It's easy to think that we cannot, as individuals, make a difference for a group or cause. It's important to remember that every little bit helps in the lives of those in need. This is such a great way to finish up the semester and head into the holidays. Hopefully our small effort will help to improve the holidays for homeless female Veterans in the DC area!
