Make a Difference: Tennyson Center for Children

Some of the best responses I've received since sharing a Colorado connection daily have been for Make A Difference. Recently, I've shared the need for children to have school supplies for going back to school. In previous weeks I've also talked about Food Bank of the Rockies and Open Door Ministries to name a few.

As moms, we all have a heart for children. The hurt and disappointment, the lack of love that children face day-to-day breaks our heart... or should. Today I want to make you aware of Tennyson Center for Children at Colorado Christian Home. Click HERE to find out more about how you can make a difference in the life of a child.

Although a monetary donation is necessary for organizations, the care of an adult can make a significant impact on the life of a child. Here is a brief excerpt from their website:

"Over the years, we’ve been very fortunate to have a variety of service organizations helping out with volunteer opportunities at Tennyson Center.  Favorite activities among these groups have included “Reading Buddies”, sporting and recreational activities, game nights, cooking nights, bowling leagues, holiday outings and so much more.  By offering to spend time with the children, you’re giving something of immeasurable value to the children and to our mission. To the kids, you become a mentor, a role model, even a teacher.  But, more importantly, you become a friend."

Remember, you can make life better today... any day! When you make a conscious decision to care for others in a selfless way, you are making the world a better place. Happy Wednesday!
