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!
Last month the Love Drop Team raised over $13,000 (and 3 iPads!) to help two little boys with autism receive a service dog. They were beyond touched, and we did this in only 1 month – that’s it. 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 here – it’s pretty cool.
Now it’s time for the Love Drop Team to turn frowns into smiles and I hope you can help. Here’s the details:
This month we start all over again and rally behind Katie, a single mom out in Dallas battling not only two brain tumors so far (she’s knocked out one, and currently working on the other), but who’s also dealing with hydrocephalus. We’re teaming up with folks at Blissdom this month to not only bring the community her way, but to make a huge dent in her medical bills.
Wanna help? Here are 3 ways we could use you:
-
Give $1.00 – This is the best way to help out and join our team at the same time.
-
Join our blogger network – Blog about our Love Drops each month like I am 🙂 It’s easy, it’s rewarding, and it REALLY helps spread the word (which in turn helps our families). Love Drop will give you all the content you need.
-
Give a gift or provide a service – Gift cards are always helpful. Places like Target, Safeway, gas stations, etc would definitely help them out.
About Katie
If you are able to and want to help Katie feel the love this March, this list might may be helpful to you.
- She loves quilting
- She’s into crafty stuff like scrapbooking
- She loves the color purple (it’s her “happy color”) and teal
- She was a history major
- Loves all kinds of music
- And bowling!
- And also dancing 🙂
- She’s addicted to reading (we’re gonna get her a Kindle probably!! so gift cards there would be good)

Again, there are many ways to support this outreach and I hope you are able to find a way that works best for you and your situation. Sometimes it’s easy to think we have problems, then we meet strong people like Katie, who happen to remind us that our situation could be much worse! My prayers are with you Katie! Good luck!
Go Love Drop!!
Can’t wait to see how successful the Love Drop community is this month!
The love drop project is so awesome! I too can’t wait for the update! 😀
