It’s a Wonderful Life
Ah, the holidays. Rain in your boots, Christmas music playing in every store, having to find gifts for people you only pretend to like — it’s all enough to drive one mad. But don’t despair! Remember what Grandma (or was it Charlie Brown?) told you: “‘Tis better to give than to receive.” Hurrah!
So if you’re sick of giving to people you don’t like, here’s a better idea: Give to people you don’t know. On Dec. 11, Associated Ministries will host two benefit showings of the holiday classic “It’s a Wonderful Life” to support the Family Emergency Fund, which meets the urgent needs of at-risk families. Attending the invitation-only night screening will probably put a dent in your pocket, but you might sleep better at night. Happy philanthropy! — Suzy Stump
