Remember: A gift can travel a long way, through many hands, to someone it helps. Giving is a choice, and a gift asks for nothing back.

Following a coinDara's Give jar held four pretend coins. She wondered where a coin goes when she gives it away, so she followed one. Dara dropped two coins into the Giving Box in the market square. On Friday, Ms Vale, who looks after the village pantry, opened the box. A pantry is a place that shares food with families who need it. Ms Vale took the coins to the grocer, who said, "One coin buys two tins of soup." Two coins bought four tins. Ms Vale lined the tins up on the pantry shelf. On Saturday a family took a bag of food home. They never met Dara, but her coins were in that soup.
