I run a leamonaid stand in the summer I use the money I make to buy food for The Grimes Food Pantry. So I put it in money that we can speend.
Callie and I,Breanna Parker, combined my five dollar bill and her one dollar bill to buy a scarf and a hat for a girl. It was exciting, fun, and an awesome experience.
Alex and I, and whoever else would like to join, are going to put all our money together to buy some sandwich ingredients. Then we're gonna make as many as we can and hand them out to the needy!
...Let us know if you'd wanna help!

Hello there well with the money i recived i didnt something that didnt really pop into my head untill today. I was shocked when i recived the amount i did and prayed to god to lead me inthe right way. I woke up today at six not wanting to to work. I work with younger kids at the YMCA. So i was not in the happiest mood and one of the sweetiest girls named marrissa came over and greated me with a big smile so excited she had won her bible contest at church. Now marissa has had a hard life. But she has the biggest heart i have ever seen for God. She was telling me how she gets ten dollars for allounce each month and a dollar goes to offering and the other goes to an organization that her church is raising money for. her goal is 200 dollars. And right there i knew this is what god wanted me to do with the money. I plan on delivering the note to the family some time this week. I would be more than happy to share the note i wrote to her explaing everything. Marissa is a wounderful girl who has so much good to look forward to. I am so sorry this was long but if any one has any questions about this i would more than be glad to talk. Thank you Kurt and katie for the amazing challange.

As I was driving home from school, I saw homeless guy on the side of the road that had a sign that said "anything helps" I saw him the week before and thought that this was my chance. I drove to the nearest gas station and bought a hot chicken sandwich with my five dollars. When i got back to where he was at, he was gone. I followed the footprints through the snow and they lead in the direction of the overpass where him and his friend were camped out under.This was God telling me that it had to be more than just handing it to him through the window. When i finally got turned around toward the overpass, i pulled over on the shoulder and turned my hazards on. This was it, i was going to get out of the car during rush hour and climb over the barrier and give this guy a sandwich. I was hesitant at first, but as soon as i got out of the car, i couldn't stop. He met me underneath the bridge halfway and i gave him the sandwich. I could see a rag of a blanket that him and the other guy were using for warmth. He was so happy to see me. I walked back to my car and couldn't stop smiling all the way home.
Yesterday I was sitting at a table at a home school group I go to. I was talking to some friends and this kid walks up and asks for a dollar I didn't really think about it for awhile and then it hit me I felt like I God was telling me, "this is it, this is who I want to bless," so by that time, he was already gone. I got up, found him and gave the dollar to him that was given to me. He just looked amazed... It was cool!
I saw someone at my school that was crying and I used the one dollar bill I got from Church to buy her a soda... I didn't even know her that well, but I hoped it helped a little bit. =)
A few days ago I locked my keys in my car (big surprise). I called into a locksmith to have them come unlock it. This lady runs a small locksmith buisness by herself, and she had to come all the way from Altoona to West Des Moines. Because she had to come all the way to unlock my car which took a whopping 30 seconds, I wanted to give her something extra. Ashley had the bright idea to bless her with a tip. So I insisted she take it because I wanted to bless her.
My friend Abby is going on a mission trip so I gave my one dollar to her.
My friend Abby is going to Jamaica on a mission trip this summer so I gave my dollar to her to help pay for her expenses.
