SHE'S SAVED ALL YEAR, JUST TO HELP OTHERS

Although Thelma Evans has had a hard year, she counts herself rich compared to many people - those out of work or homeless or hungry or poor. She has saved all year to make a donation to the Good Neighbors Fund.

Last year, she was unable to make a donation to a charity, and she's grateful to be able to this year.

She says that, in spite of her struggles, she has "come out on top with the help of the Almighty and my sister Catherine." Therefore, she is making her donation in honor of her sister, Catherine Woolwine.
