Diana Kleiberg Vaughan has had the habit of spending money every day on snacks and treats for the past year 鈥 only, she doesn鈥檛 eat any of it.

Kleiberg Vaughan gives it all away.

She told the Aldergrove Star that she has created care packages for low income families to help.

鈥淚鈥檝e been posting in Mom鈥檚 Helping Moms groups, but I was seeing that a lot of people on them were from out of town or even the United States,鈥 she explained.

Though she resides in 91原创, Kleiberg Vaughan said she works in Aldergrove and saw a need in the community.

With a desire to keep her donations more local, Kleiberg Vaughan put the call on an Aldergrove Facebook page for anyone looking for extra support to get in touch.

鈥淭his gives dads a chance to get help for their families too, not just moms,鈥 she added.

The package was filled with school-related snacks and even a gift card to be used for fresh food. Kleiberg Vaughan said she took names and picked the winner of all the items at random.

She does this every now-and-then without a set frequency. She says it鈥檚 been a good way to give back.

鈥淪ome people don鈥檛 want to go to food bank, and it鈥檚 hard to ask for help,鈥 Kleiberg Vaughan said.

She encouraged others to not only watch for the next time she does it, but hopes this motivates others by showing that sometimes the biggest difference can be maybe by saving up and going shopping.
