The 29 Day Giving Challenge
Jul 31st, 2008 by Alicia
Mary at Everyday Baby Steps posted about the 29 Day Giving Challenge and I have decided to see if the kids want to join me in making it a family challenge.
The basic premise is to give something away every day for 29 days…
Why? Because to see the world change, we have to do something to change the world. Plus, the best way to attract abundance into your life is to be in a perpetual state of giving and gratitude. Be an important part of the global giving movement that inspires more generosity on our planet.
Sounds good to me! I think this would be a wonderful thing for the kids to take part in on their own terms, too.
I think we may start Monday. Tomorrow is opening night for “Beauty and the Beast” and then it’s on again Saturday. We are likely to be running around like mad for the next couple of days and may forget our own names, much less projects we want to start. We’ll start earlier if we can though!
Their goal is 2,000 participants and so far they have around 700. Anybody else want to join in?
Yay! I tried to get the kids to join in, but they said “No, that’s okay.” But they actually are helping me with the challenge every so often, just not every day. Have a fun, busy weekend!
