Oprah's new challenge

Hi -

Today on Oprah she handed out $1K bank cards & a video camera with the stipulation that they spend the money doing something for someone other than their family.

If you had participated, what would you do to help someone with that thousand dollars.

Pippe

I would have made a huge feast for all the homeless people in Bakersfield with small gifts for all the children and gloves for the adults. on Christmas day. No one would have been alone on the holiday!

hugs, train

I'd do much the same, Train. No-one should be lonely or hungry, no child should be disadvantaged, especially at Christmas.

That amount of money would provide a lot of meals at a food pantry. I think that is what I would do, go shopping and stock the food pantry in our county.
