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.

- I have found a sister in you. I thought I was the only one that felt this way. I can't believe how much negativity is out there. I pray we all come to realize love and caring for one another is the best:O)

Hey Kristen, Nice job of recovering. And you are very right. Givingsomething to others no matter how little can really change the outlook on the day. Keep up the good work. JES
Footnote: By recycled, I really meant passing them on to others to enjoy, and they can pass on to others, and so on and so on
Great gives! I always thought magazines should be recycled!

Thank you. Dawn put me out of my misery only a short while ago today. I'm embarrassed i didn't see the icon myself, but realize that sometimes the harder I work at something, the more complicated I make it. Thanks.
