PLEASE *DO* FEED THE ANIMALS
I got this email from my pal today:
Hi, all you animal lovers. This is pretty simple. Please tell ten friends to tell ten today!
The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of getting free food donated every day to abused and neglected animals. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on the purple box "fund food for animals" for free. This doesn't cost you a thing.
Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising.
Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know: www.theanimalrescuesite.com.

EVEN SOMETHING SMALL
It's pretty easy to forget how good we have it. Sure, we've got troubles, but sometimes you forget just how insignificant they are by comparison. I read this article about the horrific rapes in the Congo and how rape is being used as a weapon of war. I was literally brought to tears when I read about what happened to these women. And it made me embarassed of the stupid things I get upset about.Sometimes it can feel overwhelming to try and help. You think, "I'm only one person, what can I do?" It's also easy to either look away or forget. But I can't do that. I think everyone can do something...even something small like telling others. That's what I'm doing. Telling you. Even a small contribution makes a difference, and if we all make a small contribution, it adds up to something big.
Please read the article (linked above) and then make a small (or large) donation HERE. Donations are tax deductable.
I'll also put the graphic links on the left navigation bar if you choose to make a donation in the future.
Money isn't anything. Kindness is. Let's all do something small to help.
