Number Nine
Nov 19th, 2008 by Anna
The 100 Things List continues to take center stage in my life. I can’t recommend enough that you make and share your own list. You’ll be surprised how things start happening. Here’s my story on #9 – Join a board of directors.
A friend of mine saw the list and asked if I’d join her as a member of the board of directors for Rolling Readers, a non-profit organization I worked for before Laurel was born. I attended my first meeting as a member of the board just yesterday and am so pleased to have this opportunity to assist a great agency as I gain some new professional experiences.
Rolling Readers helps economically disadvantaged and at-risk children in Southern California learn to love reading through weekly visits from read aloud volunteers and twice a year book giveaways. The book giveaway has reached more than 200,000 children. You can help me support great work of Rolling Readers by checking out our holiday fundraising activity.
I am selling holiday cards that feature original artwork by second graders from John Adams Elementary here in San Diego. The cards are printed on high-quality paper packaged neatly with matching envelopes. Inside the message reads: Wishing you all the best this Holiday Season and throughout the New Year. 15 cards for $15.
See’s Candy is also available. Choose from the Snowman Box, Milk Chocolate Foil Balls, Mini Holiday Fancy Box, and Peanut Brittle. Just $5 a box.
Please let me know if you’d like some cards and/or candy. Thanks for your support!
