Those Less Fortunate This Christmas

As we all know by now, Christmas is just over a month away which  means time to spend time with   family, friends and relatives.  It maybe an  exciting time of year for most of us, however Christmas can also mean a  sad time of the year too. 

For those of us who have lost a loved one or someone special in our lives, it can be a very sad and lonely time. 

For parents who can’t afford to buy their children presents to put underneath the Christmas tree  

For  those people who are out on the streets homeless who have got no family and no  one that cares about them, we have to think about them too. 

I  would like to encourage as many people to help those people less  fortunate this Christmas.  It can be very hard and difficult spending a Christmas  alone.  If you know of someone who will be alone this Christmas, why  don’t you invite them around for Christmas Dinner and a chat to show  them you care

I would also like to encourage people to give to  chartable organizations such as The Salvo’s and Anglicare.  These are  two charitable organizations in Australia, who help people in need during the festive season, but I am sure there are other  organizations such as the ones I have listed in many other countries  around the world 

So in summary, when you are sitting in front of  your Christmas Tree this Christmas, remember to think about those less  fortunate and if you know of someone who might be spending this  Christmas alone, maybe for the first time, invite them to your Christmas  function so they don’t feel so alone
