It's hard to imagine what it is like for these children with parents away and always the possibility that they won't make it back. How lovely that you have thought to do this.

In Honor Of Our Military

Recently we received an email from a mom who requested some uplifting mail for her daughter. Her daughter's birthday is in March, but her dad who's proudly defending our Country will not be home to celebrate it with her and her mom wanted her to know that many people are not only praying for her dad, but care about her as well.This lit off bells in our heads and our…See More

Change For Change :)

Blessings To All!!As an adult born with deformities I have faced some challenges in my life. Fortunately, I had an awesome family to uplift me. Even though my family never allowed me to live as a disabled person there were times when I asked why. There were times as a kid I would become depressed. There were times when my feelings would be truly hurt by the stares of a stranger. As I've grown I've learned to accept and deal with those situations in positive ways, but there are millions of…See More

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:: Because giving brings me pure joy. :)

What I'd most like to receive:: Blessings from above.

How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?: Internet

About me:: My name is Tabitha and I was born in New Orleans, La. The first three years of my life were spent living in Children's Hospital due to birth abnormalities. I was born without a right arm and at 9 months old my right leg had to be amputated. My left arm is half the length of a normal length arm, but none of this has ever STOPPED me. My family raised me just as any other kid in my family. The labels cripple or handicapped were never used to describe me...EVER!

By The Grace Of And For God Our Family Lovingly Create Goody Bags And "Uplifting Mail" For: Children in Hospitals, Children and Adults battling (ANY) Illness Or Disability, Anyone in need of Cheering Up and Children and Women living in homeless shelters.

We also uplift children, men and women battling cancer through programs such as "Make A Child Smile", "Spirit Jump", "Send Love Today" and "Chemo Angels."

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!
