Renee in NC Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 A few weeks ago, I asked for help in finding pants for my 10yo - he had one pair and I couldn't find any used (and couldn't afford new.) Two members here (ma23peas and Amy in NH) sent pants, shirts, shoes, and even a cool tie! This was an answer to prayer as he was starting to look pretty bad in his worn-out clothes that he did have. Isn't that GREAT?!?!?! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXMomof4 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I'm a firm believer that if people know there is a need, they'll work hard to fill that need. I've witnessed generosity of all sorts from people who just heard about someone in need of some sort and they were able to fill it. I love people!

Just Me Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 That is so cool! I love when people are willing to share. Of course, if you are all in a really giving mood, I could use a little cold, hard cash! :w00t: Just kidding...a little...no really...kidding...

whitestavern Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Another story about the generosity on this board. I posted a question last month about Dave Ramsey, specifically which book people would recommend. Someone kindly offered to send me their extra book! I just thought that was so nice!!

lollie010 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 About a year ago I had someone send me an entire box full of stuff for kindergarten. There were workbooks, sonlight materials, a bible storybook. There was so much in the box we are still using the resources. I cried when it came in the mail. Yes, this board is full of generous folks. Laurel T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were so sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMindy Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 That is great!! I have both given and received from people on this board and I really love the community!! Did I mention that I REALLY need a new IPOD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melissel Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I agree, the people here are very generous. When I posted last week about trying to put together books for a little girl in need, several people offered to do some shopping at their local thrift shops, send me boxes of books their kids had outgrown or no longer needed, and give me PBS credits. I was totally blown away. What a community! I think I need to head over to the group hug thread :001_wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I just returned a book that someone here had loaned me. It was a very expensive teacher's manual and it was so awesome to have her do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
