What home means to me

What home means to me: Home is a word that makes me happy. When I think of home - I feel safe and have no worries. Every night I think to myself I am the luckiest girl in the world. I have two loving parents, amazing siblings and my two wonderful pet bunnies, Winter and Midnight . I know I’m very fortunate. Sometimes I think, what about the kids in the world that don’t have all that they need? My home is my everything to me. It comforts me in a way unimaginable. I don’t worry about not having food to eat or living in the streets. It makes me so sad to think that little kids know that this is going to be their last night in their house or their parents don’t have enough money to buy food. It has been very hard to get a job during this pandemic and many people have lost their jobs because of covid. Did you know 50% of those people who lost their jobs are parents to a family? I just can't imagine how hurt those families are. I am so happy to have a wonderful family and home. I just wish everyone had that. Any donation helps, even as little as $10 can go a long way. All of these donations will go towards families in need for a new home.
