The measure of your life will not be in what you accumulate, but in what you give away. - Wayne Dyer
February 14th is a day set aside for exchanges of love with sweethearts, friends and family all in the name of St. Valentine's. Why not take a few minutes today in this spirit and extend this positive energy to a stranger. Clean out a closet or cupboard of unwanted or unusable gifts and donate them to Leave it for Love.
A unique and innovative recycling program, Leave it for Love collects your gifts and distributes them among impoverished, isolated elderly residents throughout the Chicago land community. Rather than keeping unwanted gifts in the house where they gather dust and add clutter, Leave it for Love takes them and provides them to individuals who might really need the leg warmers, tea set or winter scarf just to keep warm this long winter. Examples include non-perishable food, gloves, perfume, jewelry, neckties, footed pajamas, soap-on-a-rope, puzzles, games and other trinkets.

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!
