Featured Charities

Well, I admit it. I have been too busy blogging, shopping, working, and just plain living to get around to putting a paypal button up here and figuring out how to do those monthly drawings I promised. I will get to it...eventually! But true to my word, we made donations recently to 3 of the charities listed on the right. Global Orphan Team which is a small, but remarkable charity started and run by 3 adoptive moms. Their mission is to help the poor orphaned children of Guatamala. They go there twice a year, bringing food, clothing, toys, supplies, and much faith.

The second charity we gave to in October is the SET Foundation. It is a wonderful organization that helps children in Thailand get an education. We are adopting a little girl from Thailand so this is a charity near and dear to our hearts. We love the Thai people, and every child should be able to get an education. It cost so little to give them so much. 

Last, but not least is Safe Haven Orphanage, also in Thailand. A wonderful lady named Tassanee opened up her doors and her heart to a few refugee children from Burma. Years later it has become a full fledged orphanage. Although they have only 2 real rooms, they house MANY children. Still, they do the best they can to make sure the children are fed, clothed, and get an education. The children there are not adoptable, being refugees from one country and yet living in another. They exist only on donations and the sheer will and dedication of this wonderful woman and her staff.

So during this time of readying ourselves for the holidays and shopping for the perfect gifts, let's remember those who need a gift the most. I strongly urge you to consider helping those in need this season. Yes, this isn't my typical post on here, but it is my smartest and most fashionable. Didn't you know? The heart is our BEST accessory!
