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 183: Children's Hospital Boston
Paul here. We had a great time celebrating Patricia's 50th birthday last night, with the best present being Bianca came home for the weekend to surprise her Mum. Bianca is working extremely hard, but is looking forward to her work study job at CHOP (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia). With that in mind, I thought it would be great to donate the money Roche Bros. gives you for each re-used bag, to the Children's Hospital of Boston. It's a great program and the money goes to all sorts of programs, like helping people deal with having their children in extended hospital stays. We have been so lucky with our kids, premature birth and occasional emergency room visits notwithstanding. It's great to support a locally owned company (Roche Bros) and an organization that helps kids and their families deal with the misfortune of illness.
