You (Pennies of Time) SHOW how kids can help and how we can do this as a family with a busy schedule. 

Each time we serve with our kids we are (1) teaching them, (2) helping another, and (3) building meaningful memories that will outlast the rest. Serving and being kind to those around us create powerful experiences that will shape families in positive ways.
