Ok, so you may have seen #givingtuesday trending all over social media today. What is Giving Tuesday?  We have a day for giving thanks. We have two for getting deals.  Now, we have #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back. On Tuesday, December 2, 2014, charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.   It’s a simple idea. Just find a way for your family, your community, your company or your organization to come together to give something more. Then tell everyone you can about how you are giving. Join us and be a part of a global celebration of a new tradition of generosity.  And can I say how much I absolutely love their hashtag #unselfie!

Think about how you can give today and if you aren’t sure where to do so then please consider helping the Mighty Acorn Foundation out today.  This cause has been one that I personally give to and also sponsor sweet Selvine though any monies that I make with my blogs. (more here)  A couple of the large Facebook Matilda Jane and Well Dressed Wolf  buy/sell/trade boards have come together to help rally support for this cause!

Here are the details.  It’s a simple Paypal donation that when multiplied and multiplied can build a new kitchen, laundry and dining hall for those amazing kids in Kitale.

THE GOAL

Funds totaling 190K are needed to build a new kitchen, dining, and laundry hall for the children of Mighty Acorns in Kitale, Kenya.

It’s a simple idea, #GIVINGTUESDAY.  We need all hands on deck to do this, so we’re calling you to action.  With funds going direct to Mighty Acorns, this is a tax-deductible donation. No donation is ever too small, but now is the time to end the year strong!  Please donate $1, $2, $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can.

HOW: Go into Paypal.com and send donations as Family and Friends to [email protected] and watch the magic happen!  I can’t wait to update you along the way!

Join us, rally with us, and make a difference with us. “The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn”

PS: We still need ONE MORE PUSH to finish our own #MyHalo campaign strong!  PLEASE take part today!  Send something in.  Enter the huge mega giveaway.  Make these kids smile. Details here.
