Anyway. I wanted to let you guys know that I decided to participate in their network (via invitation). I did it for a couple reasons, one being to continue to create awareness about Charge Syndrome, Moriah's Heart Defect (Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia and Multiple Aorto-Pulmonary Collateral Arteries), and Ventilator-Dependency.
But, the main reason is because the blog profits from the advertisements that are posted here when you click on them. Justin and I have decided that all the money made from this will go towards our funds for helping families of acutely or chronically sick children. After everything we have been through, we are passionate about wanting to give back and serve these families.
Speaking of which, I also wanted to give any of you the option to donate to our Christmas gifts that we are doing for the CVICU families at LPCH. Nothing big or fancy, but I wanted to do $10 Starbucks gift cards for 20 beds. Maybe something more depending on the funds that we have available.
Please do not feel pressured. This is only for those who want to contribute, knowing that many of you are our friends who have spent time at LPCH. I remember running over to the Starbuck across the street from the Ronald McDonald House, and savoring that treat before I headed over to be with Moriah in the CVICU. That cup of yummy coffee was my little treat before I went into what felt like a war zone.
Again, if you want to contribute, you can click on the image below and donate, designating the amount for "Packard Plant."
OR...
you can just click away on the ads =)
We are also open to suggestions of more things we can do to serve the families.
Thanks guys.
Love,
Victoria
