When I was a child, we were financially challenged. Every Christmas, my mother would tell me "I don't know if there will be a Christmas this year." I know she always stressed about money, but it wasn't very conscious of her to tell me that...I feel it's a stress a child doesn't need.  I know there are other, more important things happening in this world, but to a child, Christmas (or whatever holiday you celebrate) is a big deal, and I just can't stand the thought of a child being left out at holiday time.  
 

Soooo, as I do every year, I'm doing a healing/fundraiser to see what we can do to make life a little better for some children (and their parents who are struggling to get by).  Donate any amount and I'll include you in a special healing I'm doing for the Summer/Winter Solstice on December 21st.  100% of your donation will be used to buy toys which will be donated to the Spark of Love Toy Drive (which is ultimately distributed by Toys for Tots).  I pay all fees and expenses incurred.  Last year, we raised nearly $3000...Let's smash that number this year!
