Even one person can make a difference by doing a good deed on Sept. 11. It's part of what unites us, especially in times of challenge.

1 年Your words resonate deeply with all of us, serving as a powerful reminder that even one person has the potential to ignite change through a simple act of kindness. Together, let's honor the memory of 9/11 by not only remembering but actively participating in acts of kindness and compassion that strengthen the bonds that unite us, particularly in challenging times. Your suggestion to also consider charitable giving resonates deeply with me, and I encourage others to join us in making a lasting impact. By donating gently used laptops to Advanced Technology Education, a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status, we can empower our senior community to embark on a journey of computer literacy, fostering independence and connection. Moreover, your generous contribution offers you the chance to make a tax-deductible donation that supports essential educational initiatives in our community. You can conveniently drop off your laptops at 6161 Busch Blvd, Suite 100, Columbus, OH 43229, and by doing so, you become an integral part of this transformative journey. Your support will be treasured and deeply appreciated, as together, we create a brighter, more connected future for all
