August 2011-
I am starting a 29-Day Challenge to give one gift each day and see how it affects my life. I have always considered myself a giver, but I feel this challenge will challenge and focus me on giving more. I was inspired by the book 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving can Change your Life. I ran across it 2 years ago in a bookstore in Springfield, MO, and I titled a piece of paper 29 Gifts. I found that same piece of paper the other day, and I saw it as a sign to start the challenge. You can learn more about the book and challenge at http://givingchallenge.ning.com/.

After 1 month of giving, I have continued this challenge in giving and sharing the stories with others. Hope you enjoy reading about my adventures with giving!

Day 44: Donation to BuildOn

12-11-11
Today my gift was donating to BuildOn.  BuildOn is an organization that one of my friend's works at.  It is an organization that provides at-risk youth with opportunities to serve in their community through community service projects.  They are currently raising money to go on a Trek to Haiti to aid in the construction of a school.  Learn more about the cause and donate by clicking here.
