Weekend Wants - Tweaked a little!

Ok, I know I usually post random cool things that I would love to have during the weekend at some point.

There is no way I can do that this weekend. I got all kinds of great stuff that I really needed for the house. Awesome RED muffin pans, towels, cookbooks, candles, cheese grater, sewing machine case, pans, and all kinds of other stuff. There is just no way I could or would post wants after all this.

So instead, I'll post a few nonprofits that would love to have you share with them. Maybe a few dollars, but also donations of gently used items, your time, or just your support by telling others how great they are!

• United Way - find your local United Way here: www.liveunited.org
• Salvation Army - find your local Salvation Army here: www.salvationarmyusa.org
• American Red Cross - www.redcross.org
• USO - www.uso.org

I know there are a host of non-profits in your community that aren't nationally based like these. They are grass-roots efforts from someone who cared and started an organization to fulfill a need in your community.  Examples?

• Anderson Free Clinic - a free medical clinic in Anderson, SC: http://andersonfreeclinic.org/
• Clover Area Assistance Center - basic needs assistance, financial literacy classes, dental clinic in Clover, SC: http://cloverareaassistance.org/

There are so many more. So consider finding one of these non-profits that speaks to you, pulls on your heart strings or engages your interest and get involved. Become their champion! :)
