I was reading an article in the Guardian last week about people who have been giving their services away for free. At hemma we have made a practice of giving away a percentage of our services away for free. Because we are on a sliding scale most people can afford to pay, but there are also people who cannot. They may be dealing with a severe illness, out of work, or unable to work. When you give a gift to someone in need it can make an immeasurable difference in their lives, but it can also make an immeasurable difference in your own. This holiday season and new year, I encourage you to give the gift of yourself, in big and small ways. Find opportunities to reach out and connect with others, to listen, to help, to get involved through acts of service and kindness.
Happy Holidays,
Michael and the hemma crew
