My friend Jo runs a non-profit organization for unwed mothers and single mothers just called. She wants to know whether I can take in a teenage girl who is 6 months pregnant for a week while they setup a place for her.

They started a help line that provide counseling for unwed mothers few months ago and the response was overwhelming. I think Jo underestimated the physical needs for shelters for this unwed mothers who are mostly teenage girls from dysfunctional families. While Jo is getting more volunteers to set up a shelter, she is calling us to help to take them in temporary.

Many of us who are middle class live in our comfort zone and never realize that they are many people who are destitute and need God unless we get involve with them. They are many ways one can get involved with a ministry that helping the marginalized groups of people in our society.

One way you can help is to get involve with the Car Donation Ministry (www.carangel.com) to help the single mothers, homeless, troubled teens, adult rehab and prison reform. You can Donate a Car and they will use it to raise fund to spear head projects for the groups of people they are involved with. The current project is using the car donations to raise fund for creating Free Children’s DVDs, anti-drug documentaries and distributing uplifting books into prisons.

Nowadays, people may not get much from selling their old cars and hence, find it more meaningful to do a good cause. Car Donations have become the choice of a lot of people considering the amount of work one has to deal with if they dispose off their cars to used car dealers. Sometimes, one end up wasting a lot of time plus the stresses of putting up ads, finding willing buyers and getting rid of the car. Why not get involve with a worthy cause and get help to dispose your car at the same time?

In addition, it will help you with saving in tax. You will receive your IRS tax deduction. Now, isn’t that a good reason? You help someone and at the same time, you get a tax deduction. On top of that, the Car Angel Ministries will take care of the paperworks.

I hope you will go over and learn more. If it compels you, please do share the link with your friends.
