Day #136: Give to Marlena

Congratulations to Marlena - this week’s featured giver and prize winner (gift certificate for Four at The Old Spaghetti Factory).

Marlena’s story:

Our neighbor was diagnosed with ALS about one year ago. She has lost her ability to talk and misses interacting with our two toddlers. We bring her and her husband treats and send them pictures of the kids. Her husband says that it brightens her spirit. Just a small gesture to make her tough journey a little bit easier.

A new prize winner is selected each week! To enter, you can leave a comment on igive any (or every) day of the week.

Our next prize is another gift certificate for Four at The Old Spaghetti Factory! The pasta-based family restaurant offers freshly made pasta and spaghetti sauces served in an atmosphere of antiques and fun. You can follow The Old Spaghetti Factory on Facebook.
