RE: Giving Away Tens of Thousands of Free Meals A Year Is Our LIFESTYLE, Not Just a Holiday Observance!
Matthew and I talk often about how we plan to use our homestead to give back to the community as well. I will have to takes notes on how you are able to give so much. Until then, we donate to our local food bank at the check out of our weekly grocery shop and send a monthly donation to another charitable organization as well. This year, Matthew's mom had the idea to donate a goat to a village in lui of gifts which we were more than happy to get on board with.
If you don't hear this enough already, thank you for your generosity and for encouraging others to give back as well. We all need these reminders from day to day. -Aimee
We hear it but its never to much!
Thanks for the recognition and support!
So great to know that you are doing something to help people and the world be a happier and healthier place.
Yes donating goats, seeds education etc to help peopple be more self reliant is way better than canned goods but do what you can as you can.
Also just remember that many charitable organizations that take donations are not very efficient with the funds including lots of salaries and expenses for the organization that don't even help the people the organization is saying they help. Some do get a lot done with it and they are worth donating to for sure!

Great points! We are very specific with the organizations we choose to support for that very reason. We used to donate canned food but switched to monetary so they have greater access to fresh produce and meat. We truly are looking forward to getting our homestead operational so we can do nore good ourselves and rely less on other organizations. I hope you keep posting about your community work so we can learn more! -A
