Kid One is a charity that helps kids get to needed doctor appointments. A lot of families don't have a vehicle or one that currently works.
Did you know that 16.6% of Alabamians lived below the poverty line according to the 2009 Census Data? That means that 25.8% of children lived in households below the poverty line. (Poverty line = $22,050 for a year for a family of 4 or $10,830 for an individual for a year)
So, enough education for today, but I say all that to say.... A lot of people are less fortunate than us. I hope we all keep that in perspective. We are richly blessed... in jobs, friends, and family!
Here are a few pictures from the Gala we attended. To raise money there was a live auction, silent auction, and a plated dinner. We had a lot of fun with friends for a good cause!
