Hey guys! Here’s the latest update from the Love Drop community. The Love Drop team is at it again! Last month they gave over $5,000 worth of cash and goods to their recipient, Katie, who had been battling a couple of brain tumors over the years, and it culminated with a surprise gift of 15+ friends showing up at her house to celebrate with her. It was awesome. Check out how it all went down: This month they start all over again and grow support for the Kahlen’s – a family who has been hit hard by the economy, and […] Read more »
March Love Drop – Katie in Dallas
This is how far behind I have become. Love Drop, an effort to give back to the community, really amazed me with last month’s DROP!

Everyone came together and gave a few bucks each to impact one family’s life. If you were a part of it, THANK YOU! You can check out the final video of us showing up to their house […] Read more »

She became homeless, found a home, and then lost it to a fire. If this video doesn't move you, I'm not sure what will. Read more »
A Blogger’s Dream to Help Others is Coming True
Howdy folks! Welcome to day two of my No Restaurants in November Challenge! (Have you taken the plunge yet? Join me and many others!) One of the many reasons there could be for wanting to save a little money — the topic for today’s post is definitely one of them. Giving….. Do you do enough of it? We don’t. Don’t misunderstand. We do give, but it’s not nearly as much as we want to give. When I think of all the orphans, widow’s, single mothers and the poor and unfortunate others out there, I know that what I do is […] Read more »
