The Time for Giving

With the Holiday Season fast approaching, I have been participating in a wide variety of community events!



November 13, 2010- Dallas Help the Homeless Walkathon & 5K

Pleased to volunteer with Rainbow Days, I was deemed a "hat decorater." I never thought I would have so much fun decorating hats out of brown bags. It was a chilly morning so I was glad to have a hat, made by one of the volunteers, on my head as well! Although I didn't physically participate in the walkathon or 5K, raising homeless awareness and funding for my Dallas County was as enjoyable as ever.











November 20, 2010 - Uptown Village Joy Parade

Right in my hometown of Cedar Hill, I participated in the Uptown Village annual Joy Parade. I was honored to represent the Cedar Hill High School National Honor Society, in which I am proudly the Vice President. Advocating four pillars: Leadership, Scholarship, Character, and Service, The National Honor Society is recognized nationwide as one of the most prestigious high school organizations. Walking through Cedar Hill and shedding a little Holiday joy to my very own community members, I definitely left with a smile on my face. I absolutely love the Holiday Season!



November 22, 2010 - Sonic Grand Opening

Assisting in the Grand Opening of personally one of my favorite places to eat, Sonic, I was excited to get to work with a Sonic Coney and Cherry Limeade. Possibly one of the most memorable times I've ever had, I can't begin to express how much fun it was walking around Hulen Mall in Fort Worth with a giant hot dog and cherry limeade. After an exhausting day of work, I was satisfied by a real sonic hot dog and cherry limeade.







December 3, 2010 - Santa's Helpers Toy Drive

It's not Holiday Season without TOYS! After donating 25 activity and coloring books to the WFAA Channel 8's annual Santa's Helpers Toy Drive, I was proud to hear that my hometown of Cedar Hill collected the most toys. With an astounding number of over 550 toys, Cedar Hill made a difference in hundreds of children's lives this Holiday! Thank you WFAA for hosting such a giving event!
