Foster Children Fundraiser

I don't make a point to advertise my business on my blog because I try to keep it strictly book reviews, but I want to take a moment to let you know about a fundraiser that I am going to be offering starting August 7 thru the end of Sept.

I am going to be donating books, hygiene products and more to the children in foster care with Northern Rivers. So many children come into foster care with nothing but the clothes on their back. Can you imagine being a child and someone you don't know coming into your home and taking you without giving you chance to pack clothes, favorite books, favorite toys or anything. Unfortunately that is the situation that many face.

There are 2 ways that you can help give these kids a little something to brighten their day a little bit -

1 - Shopping for yourself.

2 - Shopping for the kids.

First, let's talk about shopping for yourself. Everyone likes to do that. I have 2 companies that you can shop from. Thirty-One Gifts and Usborne Books & More. Click on either of those links and shop away. I will use my commission to purchase books thru Usborne Books & More as well as hygiene and other needed items.

The second way you can help is by purchasing an item to be donated. As I stated, many children don't have anything which means nothing to carry any possessions that may acquire while in care. Some carry their belongings in garbage bags. That means that there is always a need for items like backpacks, totes, etc. With Thirty-One Gifts you can purchase one of these and choose the "Ship to Host" for the shipping and everything will be sent to me when the party ends and packed up along with all the other items being donated.

With Usborne Books & More you can choose to buy books from the wishlist (wishlist will be updated during the fundraiser). These are books I've added that are either top sellers or suggestions from my 6 year old.

If you have any questions about the fundraiser, please feel free to email me.
