During a flood in our town, many families lost their homes. Even though my family didn’t have much extra, we donated clothes and blankets to the shelter. This experience showed me that generosity often shines brightest in hard times. When we’re struggling ourselves, giving to others becomes even more meaningful. It’s a part of human nature to help when things are tough—because we know how it feels to be in need. The flood brought our community together; everyone gave what they could, whether it was time, money, or supplies. It reminded me that even in darkness, human nature’s light of generosity never goes out.
