Guest Post: A Giveaway with Bonus Benefits

I am interrupting this week's normal rundown of posts about my random redhead ramblings to bring your attention to something important that a fellow much-loved blogger has been doing at her blog.  Every month Abbie of Five Days . . . 5 Ways holds a monthly giveaway.  This month's giveaway not only benefits whoever wins, but people in need.

I'll let her tell you about it.

Hi there, folks! My name is Abbie
from:
five days five ways | because every day is different

…and I’m so excited that Sarah is having me by for a visit to share with you something I’m passionate about, which could benefit you guys in more ways than one.

Pinky promise.

How so?

Well, I’m hosting a huge giveaway/fundraiser to help build a new classroom for a Christian ministry to orphans in Uganda that is home-grown in East Texas where I live.

There are FIVE prize packages, chock-full of amazing handmade goodies and gift certificates (Lisa Leonard, anyone?) that you can win just by visiting and leaving me a comment.

Here’s just a small taste:

BUT!

If you want extra entries, you can also donate to:

Parental Care Ministries: The Father's Love in Action

…using a special button on my blog which will track your entries so we can see how much we raise and who wins!

Honestly, folks, these kids are incredibly humble and deserving! (Their idea of a special treat is an apple…I’m not kidding).

So, if you want to help us raise the money to build these precious children a new classroom + have the opportunity to be one of 5 lucky folks to win some awesome loot, please come check out The BIG PCM Fundraiser/Giveaway on my blog.

No amount is too small, and every dollar you give is matched up to our goal of $5,000 (wow!). Which means, if you give up Starbucks just once, you’ll be donating not $10 but $20 (just kidding…but at least $8, right?) to a truly worthy cause.

Hope to see you soon!

Thanks again, Sarah! You rock, girl.

Thank you, Abbie, for holding this giveaway and contacting me to spread the news!

Please, at least go check out the giveaway and spread the news as well if you are into the cause like I am!

Also, I would love to know what charities or organizations you donate money to.  Share yours in the comments.  Part of being a married woman for me is to start donating more of our money to those who need it.  We would love to know who you give to!

  1. My main donations are to the Salvation Army. I like that they are a Christian organization and they keep the money in the local community or where you designate it to go. So if I donate for instance to Hatie, I donate to the Salvation army located there. They are all over the world doing the Lord's work. I will visit the give away, it sounds fun! Thanks!

Thank you for stopping by! I am a little crazy sometimes (it's probably the red hair), but I would really appreciate if you would leave a comment. I love getting to know my readers and reading what everyone is thinking! - Mrs. Ruffled Flats
