Time for Giving…
Hi, there.
I am not great at asking people to donate money. Instead, I ask people to send in cards. 🙂
But there are two things that I want to tell you about. Two ways you can give a bit of money this holiday season to help others out. Please just read them – they are both unique and powerful. (And, if you are interested in photography, please check out the second one for sure!)
First…
Many of you know that my sister-in-law, Kristin, and her family have moved to Liberia to run a dental clinic. Their work is amazing and doesn't just stop there. Kristin does a lot to help a local home for children – Mother Dewellie’s Orphanage Home. In fact, she raised the money to get them their first beds a few months ago. You can see them here…
Now, Kristin is looking to give a wonderful Christmas to the 16 sweet children in this orphanage. For these children, this is simple – a day of full tummies and likely the first toy they have ever owned. They estimate that this would only cost $30 per child. If you are interested in donating to help Kristin give these children a great Christmas, please click HERE. (ETA: If this link doesn't work, please email me and I can give it to you directly.) Here are three of the children you would be helping. Love their smiles…
Second…
There is an angel named Lidia. She has a photography business called Oh So Posh Photography. She is doing an amazing thing and starting a non-profit foundation to get photographs for family's of terminally ill children. Wow. She needs a bit of money to start it up, so you can donate HERE. Also, if you are a photographer interested in getting involve, let her know.
Lidia photographed Kate (the sweet girl from our card drives) and captured some amazing moments. I beg you to watch the second slide show HERE. The beginning shows drawings made by Kate's sister. So moving.
Please consider helping out Lidia. I know I will be. And if money is tight, which I know it is for many, please just spread the word.
Thanks for listening. Here's to praying God blesses everyone this holiday season…
