Howdy folks.

The next two posts have a personal nature to them.

http://www.givinganon.org

Have you heard of these people? It's pretty much what it sounds like. Two couples created this non profit organization to facilitate the giving of financial gifts, anonymously. I think most people can admit there is a good deal of emotional energy around money. I think we all want to be able to give, to help, to make it easier somehow for people we know and people we don't know. This is the place to go for such things.

This site allows you to give a gift of money to someone you know who needs it. You contact the lovely people here, give them the address of the recipient and the dollar amount, arrange payment and they mail a check to your person. It allows giving without any weird feelings of obligation to mussy up the spirit of the gift.

But the cool part is, the recipient can leave a voice mail of thanks at the website and it will be emailed as a voice file to the donor. There are live voice mails that you can listen to on the site and I'm getting all choked up right now thinking of them.

To see the personal nature of this website, please go back to my Smothers Brothers post and read the comments section.

A post about that to follow.

Again...these people who use their brains in such creative and giving ways, gosh almighty, I'm thankful for them.

Big fat squishy hugs.
