Yesterday, I became aware of a crowd-funding initiative that was not frivolous or ‘fun’ but a young woman’s selfless effort to effect ‘A New Beginning’ for a mother and her young son who are living in a NYC shelter.  All too many times each of us, in the course of our daily lives,  become aware of someone who is experiencing a crisis – financially or emotionally.  Briefly, we may sympathize but all too rarely does that translate into anything other than a fleeting thought.  Unfortunately, thoughts are ethereal and insubstantial – only when they become the impetus for action do  they become effective.
