'Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm. . . As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands. One for helping yourself, the other for helping others.'
-Audrey Hepburn
Well the big idea hit today while walking out a store, April mentioned how she wouldn't mind living in a storage shed if she wasn't financially well off later on in life. Funny I know, but we connected this thought with the fact that there are needy people around the world who would be fortunate to have a storage shed as a home. About 4 years ago for my YW Recognition my project dealt with donating clothes and food to people in Acuna, Mexico and I had the opportunity to interact and see the way they live. This was a life changing experience. And to get to the point! My grand idea, with inspiration from my wonderful sister April, is to somehow start an organization to find ways to have some sort of sheds donated to slowly provide an improved home for those in need. I have no idea if this already exists but I want to do it! I've been wanting to start an activity to promote human welfare and I hope to follow through.
