Giving is a Healthy Tip for kids of all ages!
This month, our member spotlight is on Amanda Woodruff, creator of Rachel’s Hope. Amanda is a perfect example of giving!
Rachel’s Hope Facebook page states: ‘At Rachel’s Hope, we believe that everyone should have access to personal hygiene and household cleaning essentials. We strive to provide accessible assistance of these essentials to anyone who presents a need, regardless of their life circumstances.’
But why should we teach children the value of giving back? Giving instills a lifelong sense of compassion, responsibility, and purpose. Encouraging kids to help those in need not only benefits the recipients but also nurtures positive character traits such as gratitude, empathy, and kindness.
By encouraging children to give back, to Rachel’s Hope or any other community agency, we are planting seeds of generosity and empathy that will grow into habits of helping others throughout their lives.
Kids truly have the power to change the world—one act of kindness at a time.
