People helping people

This past Sunday Arpin Van Lines and Cardi's Furniture teamed up once again to hold a drive for disaster victims, this time it was for Oklahoma.

This was the fourth time that we have teamed up to help in wake of a disaster , first their was Katrina, then Haiti and Sandy and now the terrible tornado in Oklahoma.

Each time we ask the general public for help here in New England the response is overwhelming. From the volunteers that come out to the all of the donations that we take in it is heart warming.
This time we will end up with about four trailer loads of water and diapers and paper towels and power bars that will work their way into the hands of people in need.

People helping people.

In the end that is what it is all about, I do believe in the the time of disaster people put their differences aside and work side by side to get things done. I only wish that it did not take a disaster to happen for it to occur.
Now a days people pick their sides and draw a line in the sand and things never get done.

When we realize that we are all the same and that we are all vulnerable and need each other and drop the defenses and animosity we can do great things. When we do these drives all kind of people show up to help and contribute, we do not ask each other if we are a Republican or a Democrat or who we vote for, who cares. We just pitch in and help.

I know that it sounds all lollipops and roses but if we can ever find that kind of working relationship in our day to day business life and in our politics as well as our personal life we all be better off.

People helping people, working together.. what a concept- that is what our fore fathers thought when we started this great experiment called the United States of America- United -
