Greetings! 

trees-square-sm.jpg I love October!  For so many reasons ... I love the fall weather and the cool, crisp air and the many colors of the fall foliage.  My son was born in the fall and I married my husband in the fall.  It's just a season that makes me feel happiness just waking up each day.  I've also noticed that it's a time when people begin to slow their pace a bit (possibly because they are mentally preparing for the upcoming holidays) - a time when we typically pull our attention away from business ever so slightly and begin to focus on the importance of family, holidays and traditions. 

This is not a bad thing to do ... every now and then we need to remember what is truly important to us and how much people matter.  In my church and in the county I live in, we focus our attention on the needs of the hungry in our community all year long but October is the month that we strive to make a real difference.  It's the time of year that we lovingly shout out, "it's time to stop being about ourselves and pay attention to those in need."

I know that people inherently believe in making a difference in the world they live in and, as business owners and employees, we also believe in making a difference to those we serve in the business world.  It is our hope and desire that we, at Virtually With You, do that for you.

This month's article below is all about "making a difference".

Happy Fall!

We Believe in Making a Difference
By Lisa Oliver and Anne Cooper
 
October 25, 2014 is National Make a Difference Day. This is a day dedicated to volunteering and sharing resources to enrich the lives of others. Virtually With You believes in giving back to the community.  

One example is the End Hunger in Calvert County campaign. We support this initiative because we want to be a part of the solution. As they say, many hands make light work. 

Active participation in worthy causes like the End Hunger project makes life easier for many families during difficult times. Virtually With You extends this mindset to the small business community.

How Can You Make a Difference?

By starting today.

Because October is our end hunger awareness month, Virtually With You is donating $1 to this organization for every Facebook like we receive in the month of October. We invite you to join us in being a part of the solution. 

You can contribute by liking us, you can contribute by donating directly to End Hunger in Calvert County or please consider dropping a food item off at your local food pantry to help your neighbors in need.
