I’m issuing a challenge to all of you for this holiday season: Do at least one thing each day during the month of December that gives back to your community, brightens someone’s day, and/or makes the world a better place.  I tried to do this last December to show my daughter what the holidays are really about, but I only got to December 3 (lame!). I thought maybe this year with some support from you (and with you checking in on me), I might be able to pull it off.

Post your ideas, photos, videos, thoughts and accomplishments here on my Tumblr blog, my Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kellie-Martin/264549759630?ref=ts), my Twitter (@Kellie_Martin) or on my website (KellieMartin.com).  I’ll reblog and retweet a bunch of your favorite charities and ideas so we can all get inspired.

Remember, it can be anything like writing a letter to a soldier serving in Iraq, baking some muffins for your neighbor, giving a donation of food or clothing to a local shelter, or singing someone a song.  Seriously, anything!

In a bit I’ll post my plan for my first day of giving. 

This could be such a cool way to teach our kids about giving at the holidays.  Will you help me?!
