"Ding Ding, Ding Ding, Ding Ding" rings the bell, proudly held by the volunteer's hand.
As people pass him by, some stop and donate a few dollars for what they believe is a good cause.
It's not without reason a poor mother asks: "Where does all of that money go?" as she has yet to see a dime of it!
"Christmas is not about gifts!" another said to this mother of 3. Needless to say, this person has no children, therefor doesn't know the aching feeling that rushes through the poor mother's heart when she comes to realize that she cannot make belief that "Santa" still exists this Christmas!
Money! It's all about money! Some have more, some have less, but those who have less are more likely to give to others, as they know too well what it feels like not to have!
Tis the season for giving to those less fortunate! Before you place a single dollar into a bucket, ask yourself if anyone closer to you could use a helping hand.
We do not know where our donations go once they drop into a pot. Would you not want to know right away that you made a difference in one family's life?
People in need are all around us. You simply have to care enough to see them!
