Making Mom Proud
Jewelry June 3rd, 2010I and my sisters are planning to establish a charity fund for homeless children, in honor of our mother who has always been so compassionate to children with less in life. It was actually her idea to start a fund that could support not only the shelter needs of children, but also their food, education and many others. However, when she died last year, all these remained as plans. However, being witnesses of how our mother committed her life in this cause, we can’t afford to not do anything to make her plans come true.
To start the fund, we thought of selling old gold jewelries my mother was able to accumulate over the years. We found this online jewelry buyer who is willing to buy our jewelries at a price five times higher than the others. We contacted them right away and they immediately took action on our request. They examined almost all my mother’s jewelries and they were impressed. They even encouraged us to sell wedding ring my father gave my mother. Although they are offering a really good price, we decided to keep it as it means so much for us.
Now, we already have enough to start the fund. I know that mom will be really proud.
