ItStartsWith.Us Mission- For the Kids

This is what I did personally for a recent mission from ItStartsWith.Us (a community doing focused random acts of kindness every week). Here was the mission:

“Spend your 15 minutes this week making a difference in the life of a child. Try to do something creative and fun with them – something that opens their eyes to the beauty, joy, and limitless possibilities that lie ahead in their lives.”

Unfortunately I did know any children personally so had a pretty difficult time coming up with an idea to help them out. Fortunately, social networking allowed me to find people who do :) . On Christmas, I saw someone post a request for donations to help out kids with cancer and needy children. I reached out again and they let me know of an event where they would be collecting art/craft supplies for a missionary school that helps the children of migrant workers.

While I did not originally want to donate things as it got away from the spirit of inspiring children, I didn’t have to many options. So I started to think outside of the box and I am hoping my little random act of kindness will inspire a child-

What are some ways you’ve inspired children in your lives?

I’m Now Listed on Alltop!

Been a few weeks since I last posted and promise I have something new and unique on the way. In the meantime, I got notification early this morning I would be added to the “Twenty Something” grouping on Alltop. While I am on the very bottom of the page right now, it is really awesome to be on the same page as some of those awesome GenY bloggers. Check it out http://twenty-something.alltop.com (very last feed on the bottom… for now).

If you haven’t heard of Alltop, you should really check them out ASAP. Imagine an aggregator that pulled all blogs and news into one spot AND then you could search by whatever topic/category interested you AND you could create a custom page based on your multiple interests and passions- welcome to Alltop. I use my custom page to check news and commentary on topics I have a passion for or care about. Another big benefit is I get no more negative news in front of me (you can still get it though if thats what you choose :)

I’ll be back with you guys real soon.
