GIVING BACK
Thanksgiving is almost upon us. It is a time for family, giving, and pre-holiday preparations. With so many families still dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, this newsletter provides you with links to send donations to the disaster victims. In addition, we have holiday gift-giving ideas, recipes for a yummy Thanksgiving feast, and home repair contractors that can help restore your property.
This issue is sponsored by Sesame Place who gives back to our community in many ways. Sesame Place has been working with Variety - The Children's Charity for over 25 years and has given over 200,000 children with disabilities an experience they will always remember. Through Sesame Place Cares, they work with a number of charitable organizations, including The United Way, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and St. Mary Medical Center Pediatric Emergency Unit.
