***Help Haiti***


(cnn.com)
Reading and seeing the devastation in Haiti makes you truly appreciate what you have. Knowing that life will never be the same for millions of people is heartbreaking, as well as seeing what a long, hard road is ahead for those involved, and those trying to get in to help.

My only hope is that after the initial rush to respond and rescue and the constant media coverage, that people continue to want to do what they can to help and that the media does not forget about Haiti.

It warms my heart to see people doing what they can, and thus the reason for my post. Two of the fellow blogs that I read are generously offering their own money to lend some relief in anyway they can.

Ree Drummond (The Pioneer Woman) is hosting a 'giveaway' of (2) $500 donations to the winner's charity of choice to aid in Haitian recovery, AS WELL AS donating $0.10 for every comment left on her site. This may not seem like much, but with almost 15,000 comments left in less than a day, it's turning into quite a donation. Leave a comment and add to her donation here.

Alice from SavorySweetLife.com will also be donating $1 for every comment left on her blog, up to $1000. Leave a comment and add to her donation here.

I really encourage you to check out these two blogs, take a minute to leave a comment and be a part of the Haiti relief effort.
