Over the weekend, I read an article about a restaurant in a big city. It was located in an area where some homeless people were. The owners wanted to help them so they decided to throw out their prices and ask people to pay what they could. Everyone is asked to pay something. If they don't have much, they are asked to pay what they can. If they are able, they ask people to pay a little more to help them help those who can't. They are actually doing a little bit better on their bottom line than they were before.
We love this idea! I don't know if we can implement this at the markets that we accept WIC at, but tonight, I decided to try this in Nauvoo. It worked wonderfully! We've often had people say, "Oh, I'd love to have some _____, but I just can't afford it." I hate that! We've struggled and we can't afford to work for nothing, but this way we can help people out! There are some people in Nauvoo who really need help, but those who have enough in Nauvoo have always been very generous. Thank you! This is a way we can all help!
God Bless You All!
