My Work Of Heart

By: Heather C Nelson

This charity memoir, told from the point of view of a mother, wife, and avid volunteer, chronicles a journey of one family's year of giving.Through difficult times, births, medical issues, and even emergency surgeries, the Nelson/Palmer family kept giving back to others through events ranging from rollercoaster marathons to 5K walks. That one year changed their lives, and touched so many others. The charities and people they helped out ranged from troop support for groups like Operation Gratitude and Soldiers Angels, to helping children and families affected with cancer in places like Childrens Hospital of Orange County and the Ronald McDonald House. From giving presentations to local school children to their oldest child coordinating a drive for the troops, this family took giving back one step further. This inspiring book tells the story of each of their events, their participation, and their memories. Told as a conversational narrative, this memoir was written to inspire others to give back, no matter what your financial situation or time constraints may be.This heartfelt memoir also includes creative fundraising tips and tricks for your family to give and volunteer without going broke. Giving back is more than just donating money, and this book will help you brainstorm for your own creative donations!
