I work for a charity that gets tons of different items donated every week.
Some of these items are clothes, food, tools, books etc.
The items are taken, sorted and then spread out to either children or veterans, which is what our charity works for. Books are one of our most popular donations, and last week I had over 100 books to sort through. Any child friendly books were donated to children’s charity and placed to my left. Any more complicated books or chapter books, were placed on my right for the veterans. Although most of the books were for children, there was one book that stuck out to me. It was a HVAC maintenance how to book. Out of curiosity, I briefly flipped through and it went over the basics of HVAC units and their parts. It then moved onto heating and cooling maintenance, HVAC repair and different types of furnaces and a/c. I thought this book was interesting, and I knew my husband would love it, so I briefly considered keeping it, but I realized that would be wrong, and that I’m sure some veteran would love it much more than my husband would. Besides, it might give them interest in HVAC as a career after they leave the military. I did keep that book in mind, as a future surprise to my husband. I would need to find the same book in a bookstore and buy it. I really think he would like becoming a certified HVAC technician and reading about it.
