Day Two: Free Hugs Video for a Sad Friend

This morning I woke up at took a few minute peeking at Twitter. I'd been spending way too much time there recently, so I decided to take a one-month hiatus. But when I got there I saw a distressing Tweet from a friend who reported she'd witnessed a good friend's death yesterday (or the day before?) and her life has been a rollercoaster of grief since then. I didn't have much time and didn't know what to do. So I went to YouTube and found the Free Hugs video and sent that to her. It always makes… Continue

Day One: Green Velvet Pants

Hello all, today is my first day. I think I heard about the 29 Gifts book while driving in the car. It really moved me and it took me a few days to find the site, but here I am.

Today I am giving away a pair of hardly-worn beautiful festive dark green velvet pants by Eileen Fisher. (super high quality designer)

I've owned them for a few years but only wore them a few times. When I first got them, they were really snug on me. Then I gained weight and they were truly impossible. This year I was… Continue

Welcome to 29 Gifts! 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 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!

P.S. Don't miss our handy 29-Day Giving Calendar or our cute Gift Note to accompany your gifts.
