As I was browsing the web this afternoon, I hit the web site of the TV stations in our state. The lead story was that someone had robbed the Salvation Army store in the town I live in.
I asked my wife to change to that TV station and the two of us watched the story with incredulity and anger on our faces.
As most of you know, the Salvation Army helps those less fortunate through donations of gently used clothing, appliances, and through monetary donations throughout the year.
I hope our local Police Department catches the culprits. They should be made to give back to the community that they robbed and then be given some jail time to think about what they have done.
I would ask those of you that can to make a donation of some kind (whether it be monetary or otherwise) to your local Salvation Army or, if they are not near you, to a charity of your choosing.
Thank you.
