This is my wish!

In little under a month I will be celebrating my 21st birthday and my wish this year is not for the latest iPhone or the hippest shoes but for people to make a difference. I want you to understand the impact you can have on this world. This is why this year I am asking you to give a financial contribution, big or small, to one of the following 501(c)(3) organizations:


Detroit Zoological Society

Friends For The Dearborn Animal Shelter


Give Kids The World

Make-A-Wish Foundation of Michigan

Each of those organizations has a huge impact on people, animals, and/or the environment. I encourage each of you to help me make my birthday wish come true! You may be wondering what my goal is--I don't have one. It doesn't matter the size of the contribution because every penny counts. I would love to see the impact we are making, so please let the organization(s) know to send an acknowledgment letter of your contribution to my address below.   

We have the power to impact the world- please share this blog to your facebook and twitter!
