Blessings To You This Holiday Season Happy Winter Solstice * Happy Hanukkah The spirit of Christmas is sharing and caring. Let us not just be focused on our lives alone. Let us look around a little and see the needs of others as well. Even if you are able to help just one person, then you have made a difference. If my children can do this, that would be the real Christmas celebration.

Pacific Northwest Green Friends Update: AYUDH (Youth) The educational AYUDH Plastic Awareness workshop was a huge success with 21 people signing up! Several adults shared that their kids passed on new information to other parents and siblings once the call was over! It was so fun to see the kids interested and asking questions about how to help the environment! At the end of the presentation, I asked the kids to write one thing they had learned. I thought you would enjoy seeing their replies! ~Sonali
