It is the Season Again

Thanks / Giving Season


The Kentucky 9/12 project regularly during this Thanks / Giving season every year we ask you to make a small sacrifice for others that may be in need. During the month of November and December we would like you to open your hearts, arms, and pantries for your brothers and sisters in need. When our neighbors are struggling it is our job to provide charity when it’s needed, have compassion for each other, give a hand-up when we can, and most importantly, instill a little hope. This is the season of being thankful for what we have and giving back what we can.



We have multiple ways we recommend you can get involved and help out in a way you desire.



- Many of our members have been practicing food storage and preparing their own homes and pantries. This is a fabulous virtue and one we will begin to encourage even more. We also need charity as well and we are asking you to take just a little back out of those pantries and food storage and donate it to a local food pantry or food bank this month to help those in your community.

- Our prayers and thoughts go out to everyone that has been impacted and in the line of Hurricane Sandy. We ask if you feel moved and are able that you consider helping out those that have been affected and those assisting in those areas. Mercury One is working with local charters and is a trusted source please help at: www.mercuryone.org

- A charity that is near and dear to our family The Bob Brown House in Lexington Kentucky needs our help – and you need to heed this call. They not only provide an invaluable service but represent the principles we stand for. Visit their website bobbrownhouse.com to see their Christmas list and ways you can help.

- Finally as always there are many other great charities and people in need that you may know personally. Please make your own list of the people and charities you would help and do something special for someone this season.



Please consider the next random act of kindness and be someone of public virtue and help out others and take some from your pantry and give to theirs.
