What’s in your wallet… let your heart lead you.

 

Give and you shall receive. I truly believe in those words of wisdom and you should too. Yes, it is a challenging time for all. But let’s not forget those who are in worse shape than we are. Think about it… we each have our own story to tell. We are all trying to do the very best that we can and keep positivity in our lives. There are always others who are worse off than we are. Can we offer that positivity to others? You bet!

It is not always about “us”. We deal with clients who have hit really hard times. They have lost their jobs, their homes, their self dignity. Many of us may see ourselves in the same situation. I, myself, was there last year too.

But we can not forget to give back. My heart fills with extra energy and drive when I give back in some way. It gives me strength and it makes Ryan and I feel wonderful to help others.

Last year we donated to a wonderful last chance ranch, A Chance for Bliss. We helped monetarily and physically with the 2009 Doggie Run.  Along with several other wonderful people, they were able to save their ranch and continue their extraordinary efforts for animals in their last years of life.  We also helped provide furniture and staged a home for the Sacramento Self Help Housing group, which helps people who desperately need housing, a chance to start a new life.

 

What can you do?  Well, let your heart lead you. Could it be your local SPCA, Do you know how many people have dumped their animals when they lost their house?  The numbers would astound you. How about a Girls and Boys Club?  We tend to forget about how all this affects our youth. They have a hard enough time with pre adolescence, throw a foreclosure in there and they are lost. All of the non-profits have been hurt by this economy. Find one in your community and give a % of your proceeds for the month of March. We still need to give back to our communities… yes, even now.

 

Let’s start 2010 on the mend with first helping others who are so deserving.

For Stage Right Design, we are donating a percentage of our proceeds for the Month of March to the Placer County SPCA.  Start now.....What can you do?

Thank you Michelle. I doesn't take a whole lot to give because every little bit helps. I am really trying to inspire The AR Gods to get away from the negative "rain drops" and focus on a little sun ;)

Mary Lou... gotta love all who really don't have a voice in this real estate mess. Thanks for stopping by.

You spoke directly to my heart.  Must be a reason why I was thinking of you the other day.  We'll have to reconnect.  I'm re-blogging this.  At least it will get syndicated to my facebook friends who are all local.

Hi Lori,

Thanks for reminding me of my two favorite causes. Animals and kids.

I have a heart for the homeless, Lori Kim -- especially given my line of work! Everyday, I'm living and breathing what "home" means to people. Imagine not having one at all.

GreenApple gives to local charities that support the homeless in our community. There was also a large condo fire just a mile from my home! We have committed funds and some household goods to do our small part towards the 400 now rendered homeless.

I agree with you . . . I couldn't just sit by and do nothing.
