Community service alert!
I was walking intro Target very early this morning when I saw a group of people gathered by the entrance. I noticed two fire department personnel and a bunch of people in D9 sweaters and so I stopped for a second to try and figure out what was going on. (I'm a firefighter myself and one of my coworkers is a Kappa Alpha Psi.)
One woman noticed me looking and she came over to introduce herself and enthusiastically tell me about their service project. This San Diego area group of D9 members teamed up with the SDFD Black Firefighters association to sponsor about 10 families for Christmas. They were coming in to purchase the gifts on the families' wish lists and they will be going around soon to surprise each of the families.
I was really blessed to be able to meet this group this morning and they brightened my day with some Christmas cheer.
