My best efforts are limited and inadequate, as are those of most individuals or even charities to address the great need that is prevalent, and do believe as a nation we should be willing to do what we can to protect those through no fault of their own fall short of helping themselves, or have the least.
I'll be honest I hate disclosing the time I've put in with church and civic groups mostly because it's a very personal thing between me and the God that I'm learning to understand. I hope YOU understand and don't bet against me and my paltry efforts, I'm doing the best I can with what I have.
