Don't worry about it people do good turns and get their reward from being
able to help.
If I was you in your situation I would get my children to make some nice thank you cards and put in an invitation to a camp fire night. I would have a big bonfire, a big bag of potatoes to roast, some beans, just like the cowboys do. Get someone who can play the guitar or some CDs and bring your own drinks. Have a dance and singing shindig. This would not cost much and I am sure you would all have a good time.

As we know we dont need money to give to someone. I think having a little party in which you can all get together and toast to them and there kindness is a great idea.
A good meal is something everyone can enjoy. Making something special for them doesnt cost much but it is the effort that is counted not the dollars.
If all esle fails just accept a thoughtful letter or card can say more than money. As people we all understand gratitude.

Tell each of them how much thier generosity meant to you and include a genuine positive comment on what you like about that person. Its not about giving back in material terms always, sometimes we can empower others by our acceptance of thier gifts too.
