Number 194 in a Series
Cap’n Greg hopes you had a really nice holiday season. If you are like most people, the whole month of December is a time for giving. You buy things for family and friends, send cards and support worthy causes. It makes you feel good. I know, because I do it, too. But here’s the thing. After December is over, the need in Rocky Point doesn’t go away when you do. There are still many worthy causes to support, and they can use your help no matter what month the calendar displays.
I am not affiliated with any of the following, but I have been assured all will make the most of any contributions.
