The average cost for back to school supplies and clothing is approximately $1500 according to NBC news, that is just as much as the average mortgage payment for many individuals. According to NCCP.org children make up 34 percent of people in poverty.

No child wants to go to school without the proper clothing, shoes, or school supplies. The less fortunate seem to be one of the first to be bullied as a result of this particular lack.

 Chris
Brown has it wrong: The world, at times, isn’t loyal. Society tends to be loyal
to the hustle and bustle of their daily lives. Their minds are consumed with
their own problems or scrolling down their Facebook timeline to get a glimpse
of Kim Kardashian’s latest antics. As we enter into the holiday season and sit
at our family dinner tables breaking bread and giving thanks, we can choose to
un-follow society’s lead and ground ourselves into the spirit of giving to our
fellowman in need. During
November and December, stress runs high in most families. Finances are
stretched to buy gifts or to travel to see family members. Seeing those family
members we don’t quite get along with or not being able to see relatives and
friends can add even more stress to a relationship. Excessive alcohol
consumption is usually an added factor at this time of year. Sometimes our
expectations of what should happen compared to what actually happens can give
us the holiday blues. Many of us try to out do ourselves during the holidays
and arguments happen. But what about abuse during the season? How can it be
prevented?On
Sunday, December 21 D.I.P. Foundation will be hosting its 2
Annual Food, Clothing & Toy Giveaway: 712 West Duval Street Jacksonville,
FL 32202 at 2PM. The event’s purpose is
to rally community supporters together in order to ease someone’s pain by bringing
some holiday cheer to needy families in Jacksonville. We all endure our own
challenges in our lives. We go through them so that we may be a beacon of
light to others. Help someone know that there is a light at the end of
the tunnel. Volunteer your time, lend a listening ear and heart, or
donate funds to help the D.I.P. Foundation with its domestic violence
prevention mission.About
D.I.P. Foundation: A local grassroots 501

The pressures of celebrating the holidays sometimes causes
tempers to flare, energy levels to soar and arguments to ensue, culminating in
an explosion of domestic violence and abuse. Parties, celebrations and
festivities are everywhere and the temptation for excess can be intoxicating. Alcohol,
drugs, heightened emotions and the wrong combination of family members, are
very often contributing factors in violent holiday explosions. In fact, the
holiday season can be an exceptionally tough emotional period for many domestic
violence victims, even children. Most loving mothers will do whatever is
necessary to create a fun and festive holiday environment for her children,
however, for children living in a home where violence occurs, very often,
Christmas represents a prolonged period of trepidation due to the anticipation
of violence. D.I.P. Foundation is anon-profit that is working to
prevent and end domestic violence by developing innovative programs and events that:
“On Saturday, December 13, & Sunday
December 14 from 1 – 4pm, D.I.P. Foundation invites children
to have their pictures taken with Santa Claus! Parents will be pleased to
donate just $5 for a professional 4”x6” ready- to-display portrait at D.I.P.
Foundation Crime Prevention Studio which is located at 5301 Norwood Avenue. Pic A Fit Against violence while
celebrating the holiday season with a festive event for the whole family; free
egg nog & cookies will be served.” Upcoming Event:Free Food, Clothing, Toy Drive December 21 2PM 712 W. Duval

he community & various corporate sponsors supported the D.I.P. Foundation efforts to provide clothing, food, hygiene, and toiletries for distribution to local needy families including the elderly, disabled, children and teens.

Foundation by way of its supporters are often the only resources many low-income residents will receive this season. There were over one hundred smiling faces today at the D.I.P. Foundation giveaway.
