220: Filling a need for warm coats with Suzanne Pickering
On this show, we like to share stories of everyday people turning hope into action in small, real-life ways right where they are—people like Suzanne Pickering. As a representative of Banner Health, Suzanne started a winter coat and blanket drive in partnership with The Salvation Army in Tucson, Arizona. She knows firsthand what it is like to need a little help—and after seeing people without a warm coat amid freezing temperatures, she said she decided to do something about it. She said, “The Salvation Army once helped me and it was exactly what my family needed—hope.” Now some 20 years later, she organized this Warm Up Tucson drive—doing what she can with what she has right where she is. As part of our Warm Hearts, Warm Homes series, we’re asking how we can embolden a spirit of care and community, especially in these coldest weeks of the year. Stick around to the end to hear this week’s challenge for you. EPISODE SHOWNOTES: Read more. BE AFFIRMED. Get the Good Words email series. JOIN THE HOPEFULS. Get inside the group. WHAT’S YOUR CAUSE?
