Resolve to Give Local

Are you making any New Year's Resolutions?  This time of year most people make promises to go to the gym, eat healthy, stop smoking, stop drinking, walk more, spend more time with family, travel more, commit to less, or just be happier throughout the new upcoming year.  If you are making any resolutions, what are they?  Will you be successful in keeping them?  

While almost everyone makes resolutions every year, many get broken within hours, days or weeks since they require changing ingrained habits.  Finding the resolution that you will not break can be overwhelming so you may decide to not make any.  Maybe resolutions shouldn't only be about personal improvement.  Maybe resolutions should be more doing good for others.

Miriam Webster Dictionary defines resolution as:

: the act of finding an answer or solution to a conflict, problem, etc. 

: the act of resolving something

: an answer or solution to something

(http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/resolution)

What if the answer or solution to a local conflict or problem was easy to help solve?  What if it was something you can do?

Have you ever thought about resolving to volunteer?  There are many local charities in the area you live that need help resolving a problem or need.  What if you resolved this year to find a charity that interests you and you resolved to give your time to that charity? 

The giving of your time does not mean you have to volunteer a specific amount of time per day, week or month.  The giving of your time is giving even 2 hours per month to stuff envelopes, walk dogs, help at an event, attend an event, help with office or computer work...  The needs of all charities are very diverse and help is always appreciated.

This year resolve to find a charity in your area that you have a connection with and reach out to the director or volunteer coordinator to find out what you can do to help.

During 2015 please consider supporting Fore Her, Inc.  Fore Her is a local charity located in Santa Rosa Beach Florida.  We raise funds for local breast cancer patients that are in financial need.  Our primary fundraiser is our annual golf outing held every October, however we accept donations all year.  All of the funds donated are given directly to the women battling breast cancer to use how they see fit. 

As we close out 2014 and welcome 2015 we want to thank every one of our supporters.  We wouldn't be able to help local women battling breast cancer without your support and encouragement.  THANK YOU!  We are looking forward to the new year and all it's new adventures!
