Do you celebrate the holidays by giving back to the community? Does your family have a tradition of volunteering during the holiday season? The Mountain View Voice wants to hear your story.

Practices could be anything from organizing a toy drive to ringing the Salvation Army bell to volunteering at a soup kitchen or encouraging your children to perform a random act of kindness.

Submit short write-ups (100-400 words) on your personal/family tradition, to be published in the Voice at the end of November.

Please email Online Editor Tyler Hanley at thanley@paweekly.com or contact him by phone at 650-223-6519.
