The holidays are a wonderful time of year when you can get together with family and friends. It also offers the chance to eat some terrific meals. Unfortunately, those meals aren't always the healthiest choices you can make. When you factor in most kids having two weeks off of school, it can be easy to slip into some bad habits.
It's December 2015, which means the year is coming to a close. It also means that your window for making tax-deductible donations is coming to an end as well.

Our experienced vehicle donations representatives will take care of the rest. Representatives are also available to answer any and all questions you might have about the car donation process.

After you have made your donation, you will be contacted within 24 hours of the next business day. When contacted, you can schedule a free vehicle pick-up around your schedule.
Lastly, your tax deductible receipt will be mailed out to you. If you’re wondering how much you will get for your vehicle donation, here are the typical results:
If your donated vehicle is sold for less than $500, you can claim up to $500 on your taxes. If the donated vehicle sells for more than $500, you claim the exact amount for which the vehicle is sold. In either case, you receive a tax deductible receipt at the time your vehicle is sold, and it will state the amount of the sale. This will be your charitable tax deduction. We take care of all the hard parts of car donation so you don’t have to worry.
Make A Difference With Your Donation
Our partner, Make-A-Wish, helps children during one of the most difficult times of their lives. Children with critical illnesses – like all children – have big wishes that they hope one day will come true. However, for many of these children, their lives have been put on hold. Wishes are just what “Wish Kids” need to feel strength, hope and joy. When a wish is granted, it helps a child feel normal again.
No matter the wish, your donation can help make it happen! It is a great feeling, knowing that your donation is making such a big difference in the life of a stranger. Donating a vehicle is fast, easy and a decision you will not regret. Help a child in your own community by calling [chapter_phone] today or make your car donation online. Just a few minutes of your time can make a world of difference to a child.

The holidays are a popular time for people to volunteer at soup kitchens or homeless shelters, not just because people wish to give back during the season of giving, but because many parts of the country are experiencing colder temperatures, making homelessness especially difficult.
The holidays are approaching, which also means a plethora of candies, sugar cookies, candy canes and chocolates at parties and gatherings. There's nothing wrong with a few indulgences around the holidays, but it can be much harder to limit sugar intake for you and your kids with so many sweets around. However, now more than ever is a good time to be conscious of your sugar intake, especially if you've read about this recent study on what cutting sugar does to children's health.
Earlier this year, Adidas launched a prototype of a running shoe called the Adidas x Parley. What makes the announcement both unique and exciting is the upper part of shoe is made completely from yarn and filament produced from plastic salvaged from the ocean, as well as fishing nets.
"This way there is no reason why materials with similar characteristics to those that we use every day with conventional production processes cannot be simply replaced by ocean plastic materials," British designer Alexander Taylor told the website Dezeen. "It is really much more a case of working with specialist 'green' chemists and companies such as Bionic textile to build new materials by re-constituting and re-engineering the nets and plastics."
Adidas said that they are looking into other sustainable ways of manufacturing this collection. The company said they plan to launch the concept design into production next year.
Parents work hard to make sure their kids are eating healthy by cooking meals at home when possible, reading labels and limiting the unhealthy snacks they eat.

It's pretty well known that the U.S. could do better with its current recycling rate, which is just 34.5 percent. Recycling seems easy enough, but it's often a complicated and misunderstood issue that people can't agree on. Most of the glass, plastic, paper and metal that ends up in the trash can be recycled, but in the landfill it's just a lost resource. Learning more about waste and recycling can make a huge difference in the future of our environment.
America Recycles Day is Nov. 15, and there are so many great ways to get involved. Now that more and more people are getting involved in the green movement, it’s only getting easier to get other people excited about recycling, and the best way is to lead by example. This year, host or attend an America Recycles Day event near you to encourage other people to make earth-friendly decisions that will benefit future generations to come.
According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), the average American wastes 250 lbs. of food each year. Humans are responsible for nearly 40 percent of the food thrown away each year, and places like grocery stores and restaurants are only responsible for about 10 percent of food waste. Instead of relying on businesses such as restaurants and grocery stores to take action, it’s actually humans who need to take action.
