I am blessed again this Holiday Season to be invited to social dinners, parties, etc.\u00a0 I would like to re-mention a concept that struck me last year, which is a way to share the blessings we receive.<\/p>\n
I had a lovely Holiday Social dinner at Bailey’s Prime Plus<\/a> in Fairview, Texas.\u00a0 The atmosphere was elegant, the Staff was delightful and attentive, and the food was delicious.\u00a0 Of course the point of the dinner was to socialize and the venue was perfect for a nice private gathering.<\/p>\n With Share the Feast<\/em> in mind, although the dinner at Bailey’s was free to me, I estimate what the same meal would have cost me on a walk-in basis, then donate that amount to the charity of my choice.\u00a0 In this case I chose the North Texas Food Bank<\/a> as they are in the business of stretching donated dollars to feed as many hungry people as possible.<\/p>\n On a normal day, NTFB can provide 4 healthy meals for hungry people for each $1 received.\u00a0 Right now due to donation challenges they can stretch that to 8 meals.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So that nice dinner out or holiday social can turn into hundreds of meals for hungry people.\u00a0 Everybody wins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am blessed again this Holiday Season to be invited to social dinners, parties, etc.\u00a0 I would like to re-mention a concept that struck me last year, which is a way to share the blessings we receive.
