“I believe in helping others not expecting to get back anything in return.  As my mom
would say you get so much more back in giving than keeping or holding on to it.” 

God has given me so much & I want to share it w/my talent, time, & money
if need be. I give back in many different ways. I don't know the exact scripture, but Jesus talks about helping the least of these. I try my best to help the least.  

For the past 7 years, I've been supporting Taylor's Youth Association. TYA
holds the annual Days Into Night Charity Event featuring cast members
from Days of Our Lives. The proceeds from this event benefit TYA, a
non-profit youth football and cheerleading organization. If you are a
Days fan who lives in the South, it’s a must do! www.daysintonight.com
has all the info!

I also give back in smaller ways: donating money to a student at the college where I work who 
is in need of a heart transplant. 

Yesterday I participated in a walk a thon on which I am on the committee. I participate in Family
Helping Families thru my church. We make sure that local families will have clothes, food, towels,
bedding, & toys for Christmas. I give back to future college students in my family by setting up a
savings account and donating a few dollars every month. I also attend the www.maleescholarship.com
gala. Many celebs go to Orangeburg, SC to support this Doctor in sending South Carolina youth to
college.  

Part of the reason I give back is because of the smiles I see. People should give back because your 
life can change in an instant. In an instant I could lose my health, just as a 21 yr old student 
where I work did. They now face thousands of dollars in medical bills,even with health insurance. 
In an instant I could lose my job as many people have. Wouldn't you want someone to help you?
