Charity Comes From the Heart

My sister’s husband and his co-workers are always getting involved with some sort of community service or a fundraising activity. Like at Christmas, they all pitched in and adopted a local low income family to supply all kinds of goods to help them get through the Holiday Season easier and they say that you can always find a booklet or two or pamphlets in the break room for people to order things for some type of fundraising for their kids [...]

A big part of this change in him, I believe has to do with the music he had been introduced to by his older brother, which is mainly Rap. I don’t understand why parents let their kids listen to music that promotes sex, and disrespect [...]
