- Imagine your grandmother smiling in Heaven.
Wishing you some comfort and peace during this difficult time.
It's not easy ... all we have is memories ... but I can only imagine what they have now ...
If you want to share, so many here are always ready to hear and offer whatever they can.

Check out our CAUSE OF THE MONTH. For the months of February and March, our cause of the month is to help Mbali Creazzo, the mother of this movement, by supporting her effort to raise the funding necessary to allow her to go home to the country of her birth, South Africa. She'll be traveling with the Vukani Muwethu Choir, a humanitarian vocal group that raises funds to support efforts and organizations in South Africa, such as AIDS clinics and orphanages. Please take a moment to read more about Mbali and her trip.
Also PLAY GIFT TAG! Help support the 29Gifts Community and have some fun too by 'playing' with these beautiful and unique gift tags. It's the gift that multiplies – your support is a gift to the 29Day Giving Challenge, and a gift to those who receive them too! These funds go to help offset the costs of maintance and hosting for our website and community, making it possible for everyone to continue to revive the giving spirit in the world.
