This year, instead of a Secret Santa program or exchanging gifts, the Inspherio Team decided to take up donations for a local charity. This made much more sense than giving each other things we don't really need, and it gave us an opportunity to reach out to our local charities.
The local organization we decided to work with this Christmas was the Dorothy Day Soup Kitchen. This Soup Kitchen has been faithfully serving their community for 24 years, providing daily hot meals for anyone in need. During Thanksgiving & Christmas, their volunteers provide a large banquet and also deliver to the sick & shut-ins of the community.
It was truly a blessing to see such goodwill in action. After seeing this work being done here in our city, we have been inspired to do more with the Dorothy Day Soup Kitchen in the future. Especially since these organizations need help and assistance not only at Christmas, but throughout the year as well.
If you have been working with a local charity this year, send us a picture & we will share the story!
