We are so proud of everyone that donated and came out to the Turkey and Toys Giveaway this weekend! It was a great turnout and we can't wait to do even more events like this. We appreciate all the love you've given us and we can't wait to give it back to the community!

For the last day of giving we wanted to invite you to share what we feel is the most important aspect of the holidays and positivity in general… Hope!! Hope is defined as “a feeling of trust.” To build trust with someone is equivalent to making them feel comfortable and safe around you.

With hope you are unstoppable! With hope you are untouchable! With hope you are influential! With hope you are a light that can shine in the darkness of the hopeless. With hope you are a spark that will never go out. Hope is the number 1 tool that can help provide a new lens for the outlook of life. We want to thank you for supporting us through the holiday seasons and we hope you enjoyed our 12 days of giving posts.

We at the SDCA wanted to do something that everyone can do and will help make the holidays better across all fronts, and we hope you were able to take these days and offer positivity. Even after the holidays, please continue to give!! People can always use a hug, your time, reassurance, joy, laughter, comfort, love, a listening ear, a helping hand, positive energy, your heart, and lastly hope. Thank you so much.

On this day we ask you to look inside. Are you making a positive difference in the world with the right intentions? We wanted to shine light on this point because we at the SDCA believe it's important to give from the heart. To give from the heart implies you don't need anything in return except that person's smile and uplifted spirits.

To give back from the heart means you can focus purely on the struggle of the other person without feeling the obligation or desire to highlight yours. So on this 11th day of giving we ask you to continue to give in the best way you know how, but make sure it's from the heart. Make sure you care more about making the other person happy, then trying to highlight your own personal needs.

As we near the end of our days of giving we wanted to highlight an aspect of giving that is often disregarded, and that is giving from the heart. To give from the heart implies you do it purely because it will make someone else happy and not because you expect anything in return.

We want to thank you for continuing to be a part of our 12 Days of Giving. We love being able to show as many ways to spread joy as we can.

Typically these “days of giving” have focused on how to help others, but this day will be more internal. It’s easy to take for granted that how you see yourself can impact how others see you.

The 10th day of giving is dedicated to spreading positive energy in as many facets as you can think of. The smallest changes to your behaviors can have the biggest changes in other people's lives, and perception of you.

So today spread positivity to others by giving it to yourself. Look in the mirror and take the time so see just how beautiful and perfect you are. Take the time to look back at your life, and applaud yourself for how far you’ve come.

Don't allow negativity with yourself to spread to others and instead allow your love for yourself to spread to others. This subtle change in view of yourself will reflect a much bigger change in the world around you.

Oftentimes in life pride will prevent us from having the strength to ask for help when we truly need it. Sometimes offering to lend someone a helping hand will make more of a difference then you realize.

For this 9th day of giving, try going out your way to help someone who could use it. If you see someone struggling, offer to help them finish whatever tasks they are in the process of completing. Even if they say no, sometimes just knowing someone wanted to help gives them all the motivation they need to keep going and finish. You never know what’s going on in someone's life, and being able to recognize that and offer your services can impact a life in a way you never imagined.

This is one of the easiest ways to spread joy and positivity, but is also one of the most neglected forms of assistance we have. While we understand time is very valuable, we also can't think of a better way to use this valuable time than to help make other people smile. Oftentimes in life when you help other people, you end up helping yourself too. If you would like to give a hand or show support to the SDCA and the many events we are putting on, please consider donating to the GoFundMe linked below to help us make San Diego shine.

A key skill that most people take for granted, is the ability to listen. While we can all appreciate some good advice, sometimes we don’t want advice and just want a safe space to vent.

This 8th day of giving we motivate you to offer someone a listening ear. Instead of trying to give advice from your perspective, instead of trying to motivate them, instead of trying to uplift, today try just listening.

Don’t undercut their emotions and instead try to support the emotions they are feeling. Don't try to replace their sadness with happiness, alternatively you can make them not feel lonely in their sadness. So today do what most people forget to do in conversations… Listen!

Day 7 of giving is dedicated to giving love. While to many this may seem like a given, to others this is exactly what they need to put a smile on their face. There are many people in our community and in this world who don't feel as if anyone has any love for them.

So in light of this, the SDCA encourages you to show love to someone you feel may need it. This can be as easy as saying “Good Morning” to someone who doesn't usually get one, or taking the time to understand someone else through conversation.

No matter what approach you take, showing love can serve as a light in whatever darkness they feel life has placed them in. This Holiday season, spread love.

While you continue to spread love at home and around the community, you can also help the SDCA spread love through various means. The SDCA is hosting our turkey and toy drive as well as our grocery store takeover. If you would like to become a part of these events or help ease the burden of these events on us, then please consider donating to our GoFundMe linked below. We appreciate every donation we get, and we can't wait to give back to the community in as many ways as we know.

It's basic human nature to seek out comfort, and it is different for everyone in what we find comfortable and what comfort is. For some it’s a meal they remember from childhood, or maybe it’s indulging in their favorite hobby.

This 6th day of the 12 days of Christmas campaign, we want you to go out of your way and try to make somebody feel comfortable. Help someone that looks stressed at work when you don’t have too. Wrap your loved one in a warm blanket when they’re just sitting on the couch. Who knows, they just want to pass on that comfort.

Unfortunately not everyone has the time or the resources to feel comfortable all of the time. For some of the less fortunate comfort is a warm meal or roof over their head for the night.

We want to share this comfort with the community and if you want to join us and contribute to the community we are giving away turkey and toys to families in need and we're raising money with a go fund me aimed towards helping kids this holiday season.so that they have one less thing to worry about this holiday season. If this can somehow provide comfort to any families or people in need then we have done our job.

Laughter lightens your burdens, inspires hope, connects you to others, and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert. It also helps you release anger and forgive sooner. So all of those moments laughing until you cried are actually a good release of stress and are good for your health.

So for day 5 of the 12 days of giving we encourage you to try and make somebody laugh. Call your loved one that you haven’t talked to in a while or even make a new friend at the line in the grocery store. Making someone laugh is the best way to put a smile on not only somebody elses face, but yours as well.

Laughter is universal. Even though everyone has different tastes and senses of humor at the end of the day we all love to laugh. So making someone laugh is one of the greatest gifts you can give someone.

We appreciate all the support and contributions you have participated in with us so far and are forever grateful. We can’t wait to update you on the many ways you can spread love and compassion to the community. An easy way to spread joy is with our Turkey and toys giveaway coming up and whether you come by to volunteer, donate to help with the cause, or just stopping by for the festivities, know that your contribution is appreciated.

To give and spread joy is the cornerstone of the holiday season. It’s a time to show people that you care and take some time from your busy schedules to make sure that the people in your lives and communities are better by spreading holiday cheer.

The 4th day of the 12 days of giving campaign aims to start a chain reaction within the community of joy and understanding so that people know that they are not alone. That if you can find joy in the little things then you can continue to spread that joy to more people and so on. No matter how small, a person's life can never have too much joy and happiness. The more joy you have in your life the more likely you are to give some to the people around you. So spread joy!

Donating is a great way to spread joy to the community in a very effective way but we also encourage people to give in anyways they can. You can volunteer your time to help out the less fortunate or even volunteer your resources to show that you care. Every little things helps.

OMG HAVE YOU HEARD!!
On December 17 at an undisclosed location and time, the SDCA will be doing a grocery store takeover. This takeover is an event where we go to a grocery store and pay for people's groceries for an allotted time. We wanted to do this event because we understand how tight funds can get around the holiday season, and we wanted to provide a sense of relief for people in our community. We are super excited about being able to ease the stress off San Diego and we hope to see you at our other events. If you would like to support this grocery store takeover, please consider donating to our GOFundMe linked below so we can continue to uplift San Diego. Thank you so much for your time and appreciation. It means the world to us. https://gofund.me/363250a8
