How’s this for inspiration? We were honored to learn today that a 12 year Boy Scout in Averill Park has committed himself to provide CoNSERNS-U with 200+ boxes of brownie mix that we will put in clients’ Christmas dinner baskets. We are so thankful for his kindness and generosity. Thank you Joey!

My husband who teaches college students has repeatedly  said how important it is to teach kids when they are small to help the needy.  He says is impossible to get students to do something unless there is grade involved unless they have the tradition from home, church, or synagogue of volunteering.  In John Nash’s words “Teach Your Children Well!” Your own life is the best teacher. 

Any stories to share?
