Holiday Season Giving

Hello Readers,


Thanks for being so great and putting up with me during this blogging venture of mine.  I now have one more favor to ask of you.  I'm participating in a bowl-a-thon Decemeber 3rd.  I'm looking to raising money up until then to benefit local families.  I'm working with Business Leaders of Charlotte and the United Family Services to give Charlotte families necessities for the upcoming holiday season.


I was fortunate enough to grow up in a family that had plenty.  We had plenty of love and all of our needs were met.  There are many many families out there that are not so fortunate.  It's up to us to help those families have the best holiday season possible!  By giving a one-time donation you can help the cause.  All donation amounts are appreciated.  I'm also looking for corporate donors to help out with $50 or more donations.  


Last year BLOC donated Christmas presents to a homeless mother of four who was living at the Salvation Army homeless shelter.  She was so overjoyed and grateful.  It truly is a blessing to bless others.  Here's a picture of the mother with three of her children after she received the presents along with two BLOC members:






If you know anyone looking to donate to a good cause this holiday season, please send them my way.  Here is the website where donations are accepted: http://blocnbowlevent.bbnow.org/ 
I can also accept donations in person if you run into me.


Thanks for your help!  I'll keep you posted on the progress the fundraiser is making.
