Once a month, our family try’s to volunteer for Peace Meal. It’s a program in the downtown east side that makes a homemade meal for guests who are hungry. We’ve been doing it for over a year now. We are lucky to not want for anything but I want to make sure that the kids realize that this is not the case for everyone. By us volunteering, the kids can hopefully learn to be more appreciative of what they do have and learn to give back to those that don’t. Does your family volunteer anywhere or is it something you hope to do in the future? #thewritebalance . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #volunteer #volunteering #helphelping #service #makingadifference #givingback #downtown #dtes #downtowneastside #family #familylife #momlife #kids #teaching #learning #values #momblogger #yvr #vancouver #parenting #momoftwo
