HELLO EVERYONE!,

I WAS THRILLED TO WAKE UP TO A BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY - THE COLORS WERE AMAZING! THROUGHOUT MY DAY I WAS GIVEN SEVERAL CHANCES TO GIVE. MY FIRST GIFT WAS TO MAKE-A-WISH - WHICH I HAVE NEVER GIVEN TO THIS CHARITY BEFORE - THE STORIES TOUCH YOUR HEART AND SOUL. THEN WHEN I STOPPED TO BUY COFFEE I PLACED THE CHANGE IN THE TIP CUP. LATER THAT DAY MY MOTHER-IN-LAW WAS HAVING A RATHER STRESSFUL DAY - SO INSTEAD OF RUSHING HER OR FINDING SOMETHING I HAD TO DO - I GAVE HER ALL THE TIME SHE… Continue

Welcome to 29 Gifts! I'm so glad you decided to join us.

Enjoy your 29 Days and don't forget to share some stories to help inspire others. If you need help posting in your Personal Giving Blog, follow these directions.

Help Us Grow: Please help spread the word. We're striving to reach our goal of 29,000 committed givers, and you can help: Send this Invitation to friends, write about the challenge and include a badge or our video on your website, blog, facebook, or myspace page.

The book 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving Can Change Your Life - authored by 29 Gifts founder Cami Walker is now in stores. You can also buy through Amazon.

Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!

Happy giving!

P.S. Don't miss our handy 29-Day Giving Calendar or our cute Gift Note to accompany your gifts.

Mine is a story of resistance. I read Cami’s story in Yoga Journal and felt drawn to it, yet dragged my feet to commit. I came up with dozens of reasons why I shouldn’t do it; thanksgiving, my son’s b-day, the upcoming Christmas holidays, starting u…
