HATTIESBURG, Miss. - This week's Kindness In Action recipient highlights a Forrest General Hospital police officer who helps brighten the days of young kids during the holidays.
Willie McDay patrols and keeps the local hospital safe for the last 5 years, but he also organizes his department's 'Shop With A Cop' program during Christmas.
“We pick a couple of kids to go and help them shopping, we donate $100 dollars that the officers collected over the year, and its matched by Walmart" McDay said.
"We take them out and shop they get whatever they want, and at the end of the day they are happy" he added
The annual event takes place every year during the month of December where law enforcement agencies across the country give back to the children in their community.
He said, “I just really want them to have a good Christmas, the department wants them to have a really good Christmas, we just want to do everything we can to ensure that we have one, just by taking them out and getting them a couple of things."
Throughout the entire year he helps raise money for the 3 to 4 children that are picked.
“I think they all know that it is very dear to our heart, and I think the officers just want them to have a good Christmas" McDay said.
He said the smile on each of the kids' face is more than enough. “I think I get more out of a kick from it, than they do" he said.
Although Christmas is months away, McDay hopes to raise double the money this year to help more local children.
The SSUP Portal is a remarkable initiative by UIDAI! It has made updating Aadhaar details so much easier and more efficient. Instead of visiting physical centers and standing in long queues, users can now easily make changes to their address, name, or other essential information from the comfort of their homes. The interface is user-friendly, and the process is very smooth. I appreciate how secure and transparent the platform is, ensuring that users' data stays protected. This portal truly reflects the government's push toward digital empowerment and convenience. A big thumbs up to the team behind SSUP for making public services so accessible and hassle-free. Highly recommended!
The Aahar Jharkhand Portal is truly a remarkable step toward food security and digital empowerment in the state. It has brought transparency and efficiency to the distribution of food grains under the Public Distribution System (PDS). With features like ration card details, real-time stock monitoring, and online grievance redressal, citizens are now more informed and empowered than ever. The user interface is smooth, and services are easy to access even in rural areas. This portal not only saves time but also helps eliminate corruption in ration distribution. A big salute to the government of Jharkhand for this digital initiative that prioritizes the needs of common people and promotes inclusive development.
