I am beyond honored to be included as one of this years Letters for Love calligraphy contributors.  The series is designed by Claudia with Fig. 2 and all the proceeds are given to charity.  This sets proceeds are donated to Sweaters for Sustenance.  A wonderful cause gifting clothing and food to the homeless.

This year, a very talented group of artists contributed: Feast Calligraphy, Lindsay Letters, Meant to Be Calligraphy, Laura Hooper, Molly Jacques, Moria Ink and Me.  I hope you like the work and purchase a few for the holidays (and upcoming Valentines!)  They are perfectly universal in the beautiful black, white and GOLD!

Well Done

Today I am joining forces with Aspiring Kennedy to spread the word about the Charity Water Campaign.

A dear friend of mine spent a considerable amount of time in Guayaquil, Ecuador taking a look a water and sanitation.  She even wrote a book. When I went to visit… the conditions and seriousness of the dirty water situation was eye opening.  Families spend hours walking to gather water or the pipe systems are contaminated by poor construction.  Often times water collection is only accessible one day a week and must be cleaned rationed for the rest of the week.  Would you want your water to look like this?

No because it contains all this.We are only $350 away from finishing a well in Africa that will provide clean water for 250 people.  This will change their lives.  There are 1 billion people in the world with out access to clean water.  Start the change today.

All it means for you is $5.
We are asking you to trade that yummy pumpkin coffee or morning bagel for one day.
So that together, the blogging community can give 250 people a chance to drink clean water.
