Give Kids the World

I have been familar to an extent about Give Kid the World (GKTW). It is very similar to the Make a Wish Foundation. My cousin's son had the Make a Wish wish granted, so when I saw this challenge that the GKTW has going on this weekend, I definitely was going to participate.

The challenge is the "Power of 10". "10,000 People asking 10 friends to donate $10. That's $1 Million to help children with life threatening illness' to visit the most magical place on earth!"

I have challenged my friends to this challenge. Would love to see them step up. I know a few are living tightly from check to check. I'm doing the same thing right now myself, but there are times when something small can be so big. I did the text DISGKTW to 50555 and $10 is going to be charged to my next phone bill. Not even directly out of your pocket. Skip the 2-3 overpriced cups of coffee, skip the lunch for a day or two that you buy and bring lunch instead, etc.
