If you have little ones there is certainly a lot to be gained from a visit to the Perot. The museum is designed to “inspire our children to be the scientific leaders of tomorrow”. It introduces them to “a world of ideas and concepts in science, math and technology…By offering hand-on ways to learn about scientific evidence, mathematical concepts and natural history, the Museum will profoundly affect what and how our kids experience science and nature”. Not only is a great field trip for students but it can be a perfect family outing.

Although the museum is very child friendly, it certain appeals to an older crowd as well with programs for teens and adults. “The Museum reminds us that the universe is grander than ourselves, older than we can fathom, and that the world actually revolves around the sun, and not us. It inspires our community through exhibits, marvels and presentations. It exhilarates and entertains visitors of all ages…because after all, it’s never too late to learn” (http://www.perotmuseum.org/).

The North Texas Food Bank: “North Texas Food Bank (NTFB) passionately pursues a hunger-free community. Founded in 1982, NTFB is a Dallas nonprofit hunger relief organization that distributes donated, purchased and prepared foods through a network of more than 340 Food Assistance Partners in 13 counties. As a member of Feeding America, we support the nutritional needs of children, families and seniors through education, advocacy and strategic partnerships”(http://web.ntfb.org/page.aspx?pid=253).

NETWORK: “NETWORK is a non-denominational community based organization with three divisions: Emergency Services (providing health and temporary services to children, low-income families and senior citizens), the Adolescent and Children’s Clinic (meeting the acute care needs of uninsured school children) and the Senior’s Net (dedicated to helping older people live as independently as possible for as long as possible in the familiar environment of their own home)” (http://resources.ourcalling.org/network-of-community-ministries-richardson-network/).
North Dallas Shared Ministries: “North Dallas Shared Ministries is a cooperative effort of 52 congregations that combine resources to efficiently deliver effective and appropriate assistance to Dallas’ poorest individuals and families. We have four main goals in support of our charitable mission to help low-income people assume as much responsibility for their lives as they are able: First, we provide appropriate emergency assistance. Second, we help them access entitlement, health and community programs designed to help them achieve long-term stability. Third, we promote their wellness and financial independence. Fourth, we develop resource materials that can lead them to additional services and support” (http://www.ndsm.org/ ).

Genesis Woman’s Shelter: “In January 1985, Shelter Ministries of Dallas began operating Genesis Women’s Shelter as a safe haven for these victims of domestic violence…Each year, the programs at Genesis continue to expand in response to the increased need for our services. Our outreach counselors see an average of 1,000 women and children each year, and our Shelter houses 650 women and children annually. The families who walk through our doors are escaping unspeakable violence, and our goal is to provide them with all the tools they need. From the moment a woman picks up the phone to call the hotline, to her arrival at the Shelter, to the ongoing counseling for her and her children, Genesis Women’s Shelter is there to help her navigate the difficult road and achieve success she once only dreamed possible” (http://www.genesisshelter.org/).

Austin Street Center: “Austin Street Center exists to provide emergency shelter and related services to the homeless person in a compassionate faith-based community, and to provide ‘whole person’ therapeutic programs so that the person in need might better be able to make responsible choices, positive changes and have economic self sufficiency. Austin Street center has become nationally recognized for its unique therapeutic program for the homeless. Not only does the Center offer safe, clean shelter and an evening meal for 400 men, women and children each night, but it provides substance abuse treatment, medical and psychiatric care, adult rehabilitation, a transitional living facility for clients who qualify, and a beautiful interdenominational Chapel” (http://www.austinstreet.org/index.html).

•Don’t buy your winter coat in November; instead seek out those after season sales!
•Did you know that Tuesday is the best day to fill up? Avoid the pump on the weekends and stay away from stations off toll roads.
•Grocery bill high? Stock up on freezable foods after their peak times and avoid prepared and pre-package foods. Coupon clipping also saves a pretty penny!
•Even dry cleaning has its slow times. If you have something that can wait; January, July and August are usually the best months to take your items in because business is generally slow.
•If you are traveling, book about 11 months ahead to get the best rates and try to plan your trip just before or after peak times.
•Do your holiday shopping during the after holiday sales. Stock up on things like wrapping paper and string lights for half the price!
•Large purchases such as a new car have their optimum buying times as well. New models are typically released in September, so in the fall, the previous year’s models are going to be cheaper. Or, wait until December and buy one of the last old models on the lot.
•Find ways to enjoy your hobbies for less. Enjoy reading? Check out your local library and sign up for a card.
•Buy in bulk. This always makes things cheaper, just be sure it’s something that won’t spoil and you know you will use.
•Brew your own coffee. Coffee is the product with the largest gap between making it at home or buying it at the shop.
