Day 3 and 4

Day 3My boyfriend and I were heading up north to visit his family for the holiday. I spent the majority of the morning running around, trying to get all of our errands done before leaving for the weekend. While I was at CVS, I was asked to donate money to St. Jude's Children's Hospital, and I did. Although we do not have much money, this small monitary donation felt like the right thing to do. The dollar amount of the donation was added to the amount I spend and I happily swiped my credit card.…See More

Day 2, Shirtless

Posted on November 24, 2009 at 7:19pm 2 Comments

Today I gave very happily...

I took a paperbag full of non-perishable goods to the local fire station, which is a drop off location that helps support the LA Regional Food Bank (http://www.lafightshunger.org). But, as I arrived at the fire station, there was no one to be found. I waited outside for a few minutes before ringing the doorbell to the station. As I did, the large doors into the fire station opened and a shirtless fireman greeted me.… Continue

Day 1

Posted on November 24, 2009 at 8:44am 3 Comments

Today I cooked dinner for my roommate and boyfriend and then I did the dishes and cleaned the kitchen. Typically in our house the rule is that "the cook doesn't clean"-- I figured that since I have the week off for Thanksgiving, I would go to the market, cook dinner and clean up. They both work very hard and deserve a nice relaxing evening without having to clean up my mess. They seemed to enjoy dinner and were even happier not to have to do dishes. I was happy to help make their days a little… Continue

Welcome to 29 Gifts! I'm so glad you decided to join us.

Enjoy your 29 Days and don't forget to share some stories to help inspire others. If you need help posting in your Personal Giving Blog, follow these directions.

Help Us Grow: Please help spread the word. We're striving to reach our goal of 29,000 committed givers, and you can help: Send this Invitation to friends, write about the challenge and include a badge or our video on your website, blog, facebook, or myspace page.

The book 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving Can Change Your Life - authored by 29 Gifts founder Cami Walker is now in stores. You can also buy through Amazon.

Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!

Happy giving!

P.S. Don't miss our handy 29-Day Giving Calendar or our cute Gift Note to accompany your gifts.
