I’m proud to know, and work with such community minded individuals who give back.
In the past I’ve used my blog to promote my own fundraising for causes close to my heart and I thank each & every person who contributed, no matter what the amount. It ALL makes a difference.
I know you all have causes that are important to you, but I wanted to take the opportunity to hi-light 2 causes here today:
BRAND NEW EVENT FOR THE SPCA! National Cupcake Day! Who doesn’t love a cupcake? It’s a small, personal sized piece of cake! What could be better? My co-worker, who is this master cupcake artist to begin with, has got behind this new project and is actively baking AND fundraising. Check out her page here for more details. If you can donate great- or maybe look into your own community or animal shelters and hospitals to see if anyone you know is baking their heart out!
Another cause that strikes a chord probably in many people these days, is the Heart & Stroke Foundation. Too often the signs of a stroke go unnoticed or simply ignored as “Oh it was nothing…”. Education is the key and if we all keep talking about it, spreading the information and sharing what we know it WILL make a difference. Donate here, or go online to learn more.
Giving back or donating doesn’t have to come in the monetary form…volunteering or helping raise funds are both ways to help.
No matter what your cause or your passion, give with your heart what you can.
I love the idea of cupcake day to raise funds for the SPCA and had read another article about it a few days ago. Cupcakes and snuggly pets …. two of my favourite things
I hear ya! I hope this turns out to be a successful annual event for the SPCA. I think being the first year, there is alot we can do to improve- I’d love to get the clinic involved more next year!
Hi there, I read your blogs on a regular basis. Your humoristic style is witty, keep it up!
