Me too! Though giraffes hug a little differently — by wrapping our necks around each other. When we care for someone else, it is like we are hugging them, even though we may never even meet them. The world needs a lot of hugs. Thanks for all you are doing to build a better world for all God’s children!!

DAY ONE: Go to a grocery store and look at the fresh produce. Imagine the hands that worked to plant, pick, and pack them. Ask your grocer where the food came from.

DAY TWO: Look in your own cupboards at the canned or boxed food. With your parents help, put together a bag of food to take to a local soup kitchen or food pantry.

DAY THREE: Count how many blankets you have in your house. Give 15 cents for each one.

DAY FOUR: Look at the CWS website to find more information on the Tools & Blankets Program.

DAY FIVE: Many homes in the colonias do not have an indoor toilet. Give one dollar for each bathroom in your house.

DAY SIX: Most people in the world do not have heating and air conditioning in their homes. Try going without for one day as a family and then make an offering to CWS.

DAY SEVEN: Talk to your friends at school about ways you as a group could make this world a warmer, more caring place.
