Calling all kids! Did you know that even a small portion of your money or time can create a big impact in someone else’s life? It’s true! When you choose to give, you have the power to make a difference in major ways. Let’s explore three examples of how giving can create positive change: 
Helping the hungry
Imagine using a part of your money to provide meals for those in need. You can donate to a local food bank or soup kitchen, where your contribution will help feed hungry children, adults, and whole families. Your donation can give someone a warm, nourishing meal and make their day a little brighter.
