Happy holidays
Naim --

This holiday season, the grassroots movement you helped build can make a big difference for those in need.

I hope you will join me in supporting your favorite charity or contributing to causes that are especially meaningful to me and my family.

While many of us will spend the holidays counting our blessings and sharing dinner with loved ones, millions of people around the country won't be so fortunate. Donating to your local food bank will help provide a holiday meal to people in your community who can't afford one.

Talking with the families of deployed troops was one of the most rewarding experiences I had during the campaign. Giving to Operation USO Care Package is a great way to send members of our military stationed around the world a reminder that someone back home is thinking of them.

This is a time to celebrate our blessings, the new year, and a new era for our country. But it's also a time to come together on behalf of those who need our help.

Do what you can to help today by locating your local food bank and giving your support:

Or send a care package to an American in uniform:

Thank you for all that you do and have a very happy holiday season,

Michelle

Bless them all

If you woke up this morningwith more health than illness,You are more blessed than the million who won't survive the week. If you have never experienced the danger of battle,the loneliness of imprisonment,the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation, You are ahead of > 20 million people around the world.

If you have food in your refrigerator,clothes on your back, a roof overyour head and a place to sleep,You are richer than 75% of this world. If you have money in the bank,in your wallet, and spare change in a dish some place, You are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy. If your parents are still married and alive,You are very rare, especially nowadays. If you hold up your head with a smileon your face and are truly thankful,You are blessed because the majority can,but most do not.

If you can hold someone's hand, hug them or even touch them on the shoulder,You are blessed because you can offer God's healing touch. If you can read this message,You are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read anything at all. You are so blessed in ways you may never even know. If you are feeling blessed, repay the blessings bestowed unto you and do something for others. Remind others that they are also blessed in many ways and to be grateful always.
