“The measure of your life will not be in what you accumulate,
but in what you give away.”

Before the age of 12, Saluda resident Addy Parsley learned how good it feels to help people, and agrees with this quote from motivational speaker and author Dr. Wayne W. Dyer.

For her past three birthdays, Addy has “donated” her birthday presents to raise money to help others. One year her mission was  to get clothes and necessities for the homeless. Another year Addy raised money to buy dog and cat food and toys for the Middlesex County Animal Shelter. This year her mission was to help Conner’s Heroes.
