Let’s us all have a Spirit of Sharing

by Emily Crisman

If you are looking for a way to give back to the community this season then I have just the right organization for you to partner with. Spirit of Sharing has been serving our local military families since 2001 by providing families Holiday assistance during Thanksgiving and Christmas. Such as gifting families with toys at Christmas who may not be able to afford presents for their kids.  They have helped over 1,000 military children and 410 military families over the years, as well as aided in emergency relief year round to families facing a tragedy or emergency situation. The organization is volunteer run, allowing 100% of the proceeds to be given to those in need. 

Speaking with Rachel, the administrator for Spirit of Sharing, was refreshing, and inspiring. Her passion, as well as the organizations purpose to serve the community is contagious.  Currently they are in the process of holding a shoe drive called “Shoes with a Heart” and need the communities help. You can drop off your gently used shoes at their Oceanside Office at 1361 Rocky Point Drive, Oceanside, CA, or stop by their booth at the Oceanside Harbor Days! If you are interested in volunteering during the Holidays, or want to donate to Spirit of Sharing contact Rachel via email at [email protected] or phone (760)726-8100.
