Thanks by Giving

Living thankfully is a good thing... we've all heard that. But how about giving thanks by giving to others?

We consider the stories of some of those practicing just such a gratitude-oriented strategy of passing it on.

Guests:
Amanda Garber
- Pastor of the Harrisonburg, Virginia based faith community RISE.

Michael McKee- Chief Executive Officer, Blue Ridge Area Food Bank.

Margaret McNett Burruss - Executive Director of the Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry in Charlottesville, Virginia.  A reference source recommended by Ms. Burgess on the topic of “Food Insecurity” is the Map The Meal Gap website, created by the group Feeding America, showing a county-by-county break down across the United States.

Tom Graham was Senior Producer and host of WMRA's Virginia Insight from 2006 to 2015.
