Because people are generally living longer these days, the downside is that there are more housebound individuals than probably ever in history. This naturally means a lot of sadness and loneliness. Old people are often stuck in their homes with not much to do and very little company. This can lead to major depression. So it is always worth looking into relatively easy ways to help these people. One such way is by getting them a little gift, such as a magazine subscription from the National Magazine Exchange. One need not break the bank to do this either. It is relatively inexpensive to have a magazine come to your door every month. And the joy it can bring to someone who doesn’t get out much, or have many visitors, can be huge. So the next time you are thinking you want to be a little bit charitable but you don’t know what to do, take care of your little old neighbor in the apartment downstairs from you and give her a real treat. She’ll be thanking you every month!

Haiti Relief with the National Magazine Exchange
The National Magazine Exchange has been doing its part for the relief efforts in Haiti. They recently had a “Jeans Day” which raised money for the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund. All National Magazine Exchange employees who donated to the cause were given the go ahead to wear jeans to work on Monday, January 25th.
As the CFO of NME, Harold Hale, explained, “NME and its employees have long participated in worthwhile charitable causes, in our community and beyond. The employees of National Magazine Exchange are proud to support the tremendous work done by the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund in their relief efforts.”
