I always hate getting the donation phone calls from various organizations! I am happy now that I have caller ID and I can screen those calls! It has saved me a lot of time trying to tell the people on the other end that I am just not able to give or that I give to other charities...etc. But when I read my brother's blog The Three Amigos I was humbled.
You see my dear sweet and fun life loving younger brother has a great idea! He is always one to think outside the box and has always wanted to do something great with his life. I have always known that he would but never knew what until recently.
On a not so unusual evening with his wife he related how he had been thinking about what more he could do for others. And sure he pays 10% of his income to charity and donates here and there but he wanted to do more! So that is when he dreamed up a plan to start a movement...
for St. Judes Children's Hospital.
He has set the wheels spinning and has launched a website for those who wish to help in this cause to donate. He and his wife are putting in their free time and energy into spreading the word and doing all they can to so that everyone in the world knows about this cause.
It really has inspired me to think more about where my money goes. I also give 10% of my income to charity and sometimes I feel that is enough... but is it? So I want to join in this cause to help and ask that everyone who reads this to help too!
