• Since I lost a dear younger
brother, an aunt, and a grandmother to cancer, a portion will go to the
American Cancer Society. Interested too? Go to http://www.cancer.org
and http://www.relayforlife.org/relay.
• Since I lost an intelligent, strong-willed, smart-dressing mother-in-law
to the ravages of Alzheimer's, a portion will go to the Alzheimer Association.
Interested too? Go to http://www.alz.org.
• Since so much of my family suffers from chronic degenerative disc
disease, and I have a 4 inch plate and 8 screws in my neck, a portion
will go to the Christopher Reeves Foundation. Interested too? Go to http://www.christopherreeve.org.
• Since I believe strongly in working for what you get, and the value
of home life, a portion will go to the Habitat for Humanity Foundation.
Interested too? Go to http://www.habitat.org.
• Since I believe strongly in a loving God, a portion will go to
local churches.
Interested too? Go to the church of your choice and support it as you
feel led.
• Since education is important to all my family, a portion of the
proceeds will go to scholarship funds and local schools. Interested too?
Contact the local school of your choice and ask how you may best donate
your time and/or money. Many teachers are being laid off or are having
their salaries cut as well as being furloughed. Classroom supplies in
many schools are low or non-existent so that teachers, as always, but
now more than ever, are paying out of pocket for classroom supplies.
• Since
I grew up on a farm and know how important it is to preserve and care
for the land that brings forth the crop and thus the sky that sends the
rain, a portion will go toward a fund that hopefully will be large enough
one day to
outfit my home with solar panels. Interested too? Start your own fund
for using clean alternative energy or give toward research or other types
of environmental groups.
• And finally, since I am a Spanish teacher/high school media specialist,
much of the proceeds of ©WhereLegendsBegin.com will go to offset
my teacher salary. Interested too?! Get your free membership; write stories
and leave quotes and comments; email
me pictures and tell friends about the site,
so I can sell a lot!
