I have created a website to collect donations for my 23 year old cousin who needs emergency heart surgery and doesn't have any health insurance to cover it.…See More

Day 2-3
Day 2. I had a busy day and forgot about the challenge until ~8 pm. My boyfriend came home from work and said "so what gift did you give today?" I said, "nothing yet". He said "My back is sore. You could give me a back massage!"I told him that I didn't think that would count since he had requested it, but I said that I would give him one anyway. I decided that my gift would be to make the massage really special. I got out our foldup massage table, got some candles, put on some relaxing music,…See More

Day 1.
My gift today was to stick with my friend during a 10k running race. This was the first time that either of us had attempted to run this distance and we weren't sure that we would be able to make it to the end. I usually have a slightly faster pace than her, but I decided that I would run at her pace to support her until the end. We made it!!!

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.
