Can one family of five, plus two grandparents, combine efforts and commit to one act of service each day, for one year? Paul, Patricia, twins Bianca & Olivia (age 18), Sophia (age 11), and their Nana and Buppa, plan to honor the 10 year anniversary of the loss of my sister with a year dedicated to service. Together, with maybe the help of a relative here or there, we will commit to 365 days of volunteering,contributing or supporting, in appreciation of what we have.... and who we have lost.

Day 23: Bottle Return for the Lions Club
Hi it is Sophia! Today I returned empty glass bottles at the transfer station in our town. These bottles are soon collected by members of The Lions Club who return them to the stores for the deposit money. I researched about the Lion's Club (http://www.lionsclub.org/) and learned that they are the largest service club organization that is involved in 206 countries or geograpic areas. It was founded in 1917 and is best known for fighting blindness but they also take care of the envirorment, feed the hungry, and aid seniors. I've seen a lot of bottles at the stations and I bet the Lions Club gets a lot of profits.
