I'm a local freelance writer and am pitching a feature story idea to McKinney Living magazine to appear in the December (Christmas) issue.
Please, if you know any parents in McKinney whose challenges are more difficult than most (even in this economy) -- including parents of severely disabled or sick children, or parents of deceased or injured soldiers, parents dealing with more than one challenge at a time -- please let me know about them through this forum (not in a private message. let others see and be inspired to add their own nominations).
I'd like to profile 4 or 5 sets of parents, or single parents, who deal with their challenges in a way that you find uplifting, positive, and inspirational to the rest of us who face more mundane challenges.
This year, let's honor the Christmas spirit by acknowledging the best examples of humanity right in our own neighborhood. As I heard Dennis Prager say on the radio, "The significant are rarely famous, and the famous are rarely significant." The significant do deserve our united acknowledgment, and possibly anonymous donations to help show them how much McKinney appreciates their daily acts of unheralded goodness.
For any local businesses that choose to donate, I will gladly offer free copywriting for any print ads appearing in future issues of McKinney Living magazine.

I would check with the Samaritan Inn and The Holy Family School. Something to keep in mind is the McKinney Living REALLY likes to focus on the positive aspect of McKinney (and those who keep our teeth straight and smiles shiny). Good luck with your story.
