Double your Grocery Giving

Feeding America is still looking for donations to help feed hungry families this holiday season.

They hope to raise enough money for 3 million bags of groceries.

Proctor and Gamble have teamed up to help.

Right now for every dollar you donate, they will match it for a total donation up to $75,000.

So, for $5 you can now provide 10 bags of groceries.
[A donation of $25 can feed a family of four for 2 weeks!!!]

Go here to donate today!

You can also give the gift of a donation in someone else's name.
Perhaps you have someone difficult to buy for. This would be a great gift.

Today is the day.....


If you live in blogland even a little, today is the day.
The Bloggers Give Back Project is a fundraising project specifically for the holiday season.
They choose one deserving and in-need family and all of the proceeds go to this family.

Bloggers from all over have donated items that will be auctioned off today. The items range from tax preparation, photography sessions,
interior design services,
jewelry, accessories,
books,
art,
clothing (oh how I love EmersonMade).....all sorts of goodies.

I am personally loving these!


You don't need to have a blog to participate.
Go here.
Look at all of the amazing items and leave a comment with your bid.
You MUST leave your name, email address, and bid.

You also need to have a PayPal Account.
If you don't already have one, quickly go here to set one up.

Get bidding today.
They also promised everything would be shipped in time for Christmas, so perhaps, you can finish up some last minute shopping AND support a good cause.

GO! GO! GO!

P.S. Feel free to purchase any of the above items as a gift for me. :)
Just sayin'!

Gift for Good

Do you have someone on your list that is difficult to buy for?

It seems we all do.

Over the next while, I'll share with you a few gift ideas that give more than the generic pair of socks. 
(Although, socks are ALWAYS appreciated at a homeless shelter. Just a thought.)

Anyway,....

back to the gift idea.

Donate Fruit
Purchase any of their gift boxes or fruit packages and they will donate an equal amount of fresh fruit, pound for pound, to a food bank.

Give a gift.
Check.
Help feed the hungry.
Double check.

Happy Holidays
