Mackenzie hopes that her family's heat will be turned back on soon, while her mother searches the cupboard for scraps she can pull together for a meal.

How do we make a lasting, positive change?
How do we transform lives to advance the common good?
We raise our voice. We lend a hand. We give 110%. Because when we reach out a hand to one, we influence the condition of all.
