Hi and welcome. 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 the directions here.

Check out our CAUSE OF THE MONTH. For the month of December, the 29Gifts.org Community is supporting Operation Teddy Bear Care, which aims to help South African children whose lives are impacted by the AIDS epidemic. The organization's goal for this Holiday Season is to provide gifts for 1000 children living in poverty by December 31, 2008. Visit TeddyBearCare.org and purchase a Gift Pack and learn more about their work.

Help Us Grow: Please help spread the word, and encourage the spirit of generosity in the world. Send this email to friends and invite them to join us. Write about the challenge and include a badge or our video on your website, blog, facebook, or myspace page.

We also encourage you to PLAY GIFT TAG to help spread the word about 29Gifts.org and contribute to our operating expense fund.

Happy giving!

P.S. Don't miss our cool downloadable gift card and handy 29-Day Giving Calendar, which helps you keep track of your gifts.

Welcome, Sam. I feel that this challenge reaches each of us for a particular reason and that our community is very special. You've joined at a time of celebration as we look forward to Christmas and yet it's also a time that is very difficult for those who have lost a loved one or who are facing a parting. May your work be blessed and may you celebrate a Happy Christmas.
