On Tuesday, October 12, 2010 – World Arthritis Day, I’ll be wearing blue to show my support for the Arthritis Foundation and individuals living with arthritis, especially children. You see my 12-year-old son was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis when he was just five, so it’s a special cause close to my heart. Please join me and show your support as well and Do Blue too!

Do you tweet as well? Please spread the word and join the Arthritis Foundation’s Twitter Party on October 12th as well from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. EST. Use #arthritisday to participate!

Thank you!

In celebration of 2010′s National Volunteer Week (April 19-24), the American Cancer Society is is recognizing and celebrating the more than 3 million volunteers nationwide making a difference in the fight against cancer and encouraging those who’ve never volunteered to pledge at least 1 hour to volunteer with the American Cancer Society in your community. Volunteering just one hour is easy, makes a real difference and helps create more birthdays!

Cancer has had a huge impact of my life-the loss of my dad just before his 50th birthday. I’m pledging 9 hours for the remainder of 2010 and hope that my friends, family and readers will volunteer a few hours of their time as well. I’m doing this in memory of my dad, who I greatly miss and to save lives so more birthdays will be celebrated.

The American Cancer Society’s is hoping to reach 57,000 volunteer hours for 2010 and you can help by visiting their MoreBirthdays.com website to pledge your hours.

While you’re there why not take a moment and declare the American Cancer Society as the official sponsor of your birthday and create your own birthday page? I created a birthday page in memory of my dad.

Here’s to more birthdays in 2010!

Hero Hugs is a very special non-profit organization not only because it was founded by one child’s passion to tell troops “Thank You!”, but also because it is run by kids who have sent over 48,000 appreciation packages to deployed troops. Another example of how one person, no matter the age, can make a difference in this world.

Bailey Reese the founder of Hero Hugs and Angela Riseden who is the “honorary” Vice-President are celebrating their 14th birthday’s this month. Bailey’s birthday was on April 3rd and Angela’s is on April 21st and their special birthday wish is to receive 500,000 birthday cards with a $1 donation for Hero Hugs so they can send out 100,000 packages to deployed troops by their 15th birthdays.

According to Bailey:

“We get emails all the time, but people just do not send stamped mail anymore. Kids love getting mail so I think the best birthday present ever would be getting buried in cards. We’d have an awesome birthday, be able to send more thanks to our troops and it would help us reach our goal of 100,000 packages mailed!”

Let’s help make their wish come true! Send a birthday card and $1 donation to:

Bailey Reese -or- Angela Riseden
c/o Hero Hugs
P.O. Box 27
Niceville, FL 32588

Happy Birthday Bailey and Angela! You’re both amazing young ladies!

Help children and the Earth by recycling those used greeting cards! St. Jude’s Ranch is accepting used all-occasion greeting cards (birthdays, holidays, etc) for their Recycled Card Program.

This is a limited time offer so take advantage of it now. Cards will be accepted by St. Jude’s Ranch from now until February 28, 2010. Mail your card donations to:

St. Jude’s Ranch for Children

Recycled Card Program

100 St. Jude’s Street – Boulder City, NV 89005

877-977-SJRC (7572)

Cards that are donated are then used to create new cards which are sold through St. Jude’s Ranch website.

The children participate in making the new cards by removing the front and attaching a new back. The result is a beautiful new card made by the children and volunteers. The benefits are two-fold: customers receive “green” holiday cards for use and the children receive payment for their work and learn the benefits and importance of “going green”.

Happy Holidays!
