Do They Know It's Christmas Time by Band Aid

When I told a few that I was going to post a new song everyday I had a few requests. So today's song is for my Bono loving friends. ;)


A few years ago I watched an Oprah episode that spoke about the struggles from women in war torn nations. There was an organization that was being featured called Women for Women International. Of course after the showed aired I looked them up. Since then I get regular updates from the website. 

By clicking onto to their name above you are able to learn more about what they do. I have always wanted to sponsor a woman and I started thinking about it last night. So anyone interested in doing it together? The annual cost is about $360. The more people we can get to contribute the easier it would be for all of us. Along with the monetary donation, letter writing is highly encouraged for emotional support. We would be "assigned" a specific woman to form a relationship with. Just think how that would feel for her to know that there is a loving, compassionate, strong group of American women who are supporting and thinking of her. The possibilities of good are endless, not just for her, but for us as well. 




Give me some feedback about this. Let me know what you think.
Now go listen to some Bono. Happy daydreaming girls! ;)
