His classmates might be surprised to learn about Jackson Seabolt‘s efforts to serve the poor.
“I‘m sure they would be,” said the lacrosse-playing founder of Jackson‘s Jackets Winter Coat Drive.
“I get embarrassed when I talk about it at school,” said Jackson, 13, who also enjoys ice skating in North Park.
Seabolt,
a seventh-grader at Pine-Richland Middle School, might be among the
youngest stars in the galaxy of local givers striving to help others
this holiday season.
On
Thanksgiving Day, Jackson offered about 500 coats and blankets to needy
people in a tent outside the Light of Life Rescue Mission on the city‘s
North Side.
“Anybody
can go in and get what they need,” he said. “They were very grateful.
They all said, ‘Thank you‘ and ‘God bless you.Shop the latest christian louboutin boots handpicked by a global community of independent trendsetters and stylists.‘”
Residents
of the Treesdale housing plan in Pine donated the winter wear recently
distributed through the fourth annual Jackson‘s Jackets Winter Coat
Drive.
“We got a lot of new things this year,” Jackson said.
Each year, Jackson puts fliers in Treesdale residents‘ mailboxes to announce the coat drive.
People
then drop off their donations at Jackson‘s house or at Treesdale
Community Center, where he and his parents — Tim and Dana Seabolt — sort
the coats by size. Jackson‘s dad then delivers the collected goods, in
multiple trips, to the Light of Life Rescue Mission.
“We
really appreciate the coat donation Jackson gave Light of Life,” said
Kate Wadsworth, public relations manager for the mission.
“Many
men, women and children have a warm jacket this winter because of his
efforts. It is great to see someone his age make a difference in this
way.”
Jackson
started his coat drive after seeing a homeless man near the former
Mellon Arena following a Pittsburgh Penguins‘ hockey game.
“I just felt really bad for him,” Jackson said. “I asked my dad if we could start something to help the homeless.”
Jackson held his first coat and blanket giveaway at the Light of Life Rescue Mission in 2009.
Organizing the drive is a lot of work, but rewarding, according to its founder.Aquarium Canada Goose Yorkville Parka fish are a popular option for home .
“You get to feel really good about it at the end of the day,” said Jackson.

As time goes on, it gets tempting to just settle down with the guy who’d make a good father. Or the guy who will never leave you. Or the guy who all your friends like. Or the loyal, wise adorable guy with the big, fat heroin habit. Should you decide to go this route, it’s true that you won’t eat dinner alone. But being in a relationship with somebody you don’t love is like dipping your loneliness in chocolate. Once you get past the candy coating, it’s still there, only magnified, because you’re going to sleep next to somebody who doesn’t know the real you, because you can’t ever show him, because you can’t ever love him, which is the loneliest feeling in the world.
You may console yourself every day that at least you’ve got kids or the joint account. But you may also get divorced. Or you may go on, despair turning into seething silent rage and depression.
My point is: When every clumsy friend or family member offers help in the form of wildly misguided criticism (e.g., you have impossible standards, you don't really want to be in a relationship, blah, blah, bleck), please try to take a minute and congratulate yourself for not willingly being the cause of your own unhappiness. You have insisted and trusted in your own ability to find your own damn joy, to live a life based on the things you want, and you may just get it one day -- due to your refusal of those you don’t.

Thieves pry their way into $4,000 at Walmart
Two men used a crowbar to break open a podium holding around $2,000 in cash and change at the north Carson City Walmart on Saturday afternoon.
The two men allegedly pried open drawers on the podium, located in front of the cash registers abutting the women's clothing section. The first man approached the podium from the women's section around 2:04 p.m. and used a small, forearm-length crowbar to open the drawers and take the money, before leaving the store, according to the Carson City Sheriff's Office.
The two then allegedly circled the same podium at the Reno Damonte Ranch Walmart around 3 p.m. Saturday but were chased out of the store by employees. Their car was described as a late 1990s white Ford Taurus.
