Cake Wrecks Charity Countdown!
Dec. 20th, 2009 11:28 amI should have mentioned this sooner, but it's not too late to get in on it! I'm currently catching up on the last three days, myself.
Jen and John over at Cake Wrecks are running a charity countdown for Christmas. If you haven't heard of them before, go over there and check out the latest posts to get an idea. Today is Sunday Sweets, so the current post is one with pictures of good-looking cakes, but on every other day of the week it's all about professionally made cakes that are mind-bogglingly bad.
Anyway, the explanation is in this post. Rather than buying all the Christmasy odds and ends this year, Jen and John are giving $200/day to charity for the two weeks leading up to Christmas. The $200 goes to a different charity each day, and all they ask of their readers is that each of us gives $1 to each charity they list. They've already raised thousands of dollars for each of the charities listed, but have not yet met their $10K goal for any of them (though Love146 is getting close). All of the charities are listed in order of their appearance in the countdown this page, too, if you don't want to go wading through the last week and a bit of posts to find them.
Just thought I'd share.
