29-Day Giving Challenge

A Great Cause! Childrens books to support breast cancer, heart disease, lymphoma and more

http://www.weisberg-yoffe.org/index.html

This wonderful organization and I have teamed up to support these causes, along with a few others. Please visit their site for a discount on these adorable children's books. The proceeds all go to charity. Here is some info on the organization:

Ken Yoffe and Ellen Weisberg adopted their daughter, Emily, from Chongqing, China at the age of 11 months. In honor of Emily, they co-authored and illustrated a children’s geography book entitled “All Across China” (Chipmunkapublishing, 2009). The book was also written in memory of one of the mothers in their adoption group, who passed away at the age of 39 from breast cancer. Their friend, as well as others close to them who died from the disease, inspired Ken and Ellen to donate the personal proceeds for “All Across China” to breast cancer research, support, and awareness. They are also committed to doing the same with the personal proceeds for Ellen’s young adult novel, “Gathering Roses” (Chipmunkapublishing, 2007) and Ken and Ellen’s children’s geography book, “All Across Canada” (Chipmunkapublishing, 2008). In addition, a portion of personal proceeds are going toward heart disease research and Parkinson’s and dystonia research. For more information about these books, all of which are being sold at a discount on their authors’ website, please visit www.weisberg-yoffe.org .
