Thrilled that you joined the giving challenge. Funny, now I see so many opportunities to give to - in order to bring about change.
PVE-Thank you. So glad you let me know about it. It really opens ones eyes to the giving we already do and to potential chances to give.
What a wonderful idea. I am doing sort of a big thing this summer. I am having a medical student stay with me for four weeks while she's attending Johns Hopkins. I have the room and this will be a huge help to her, so when a friend asked me to do it, I thought why not. So 21 big ones, not 29 little ones. Does this count?
Congrats on joining the challenge.
Pigtown- That totally counts! What a wonderful thing to do!
Kwana- Thank you:)
How are you doing with your giving... I need to pop on 29-gifts to post some of mine... I"m way behind if we're supposed to have them 29 days in a row.
