Feeling Philanthropic? The Give Back Foundation has a plan for you!

Our house mailbox often has a letter from a charity asking for a donation. We get name labels, wrapping paper, note pads, and greeting cards with the letters. I would rather just send a check or even better make a online donation and skip all the freebies-even though I really like freebies.
A simple and new way I found to donate money to a Charity I am interested in is through the Give Back Foundation. This foundation is a 501(c)3 registered with the IRS, and they also only work with charities in good standing with the IRS. So you know your donation is going to a charity that will use the money appropriately.

In three easy steps you can set up you own foundation (an account that funds go to a charity)
1. search for charities or causes you wish to support. I chose The American Cancer Society.

2. add money to your foundation; direct donation from your credit card, shop the 400 plus online mall partners and with your purchase 15% goes into your foundation account and engage with sponsors and earn more donations.

3. promote and spread the word about your foundation through Facebook, Twitter, and inviting your friends to donate or set up their own foundation. you will be given a link when you sign up that your friends use for the referral points.

You will also have the ability to support more than one foundation if you chose to.
You can also request a tax receipt at the end of the year for your own tax purposes.

Through July 16, 2011 the foundation is having a daily prize of a random picked member to win $1000 to go to their Charity. There is also a chance for the top impact points earner to win $50,000 for their charity.

You earn impact points by referrals from you friends, and spreading the word about the foundation. If you are looking for an easy way to make a donation to your favorite charity visit http:/www.giveback.org and see how easy it is to become a philanthropist from the comfort of your own computer!

Disclosure: I was given the chance to win funds for my chatty of choice by writing this post. This writing is my own views and opinions. Please visit the web site for specific details and information.

Giveaway of New Soft Scrub® 4-in-1 Toliet Cleaner to three lucky winners.

Let's talk about cleaning toilets. Hmm, I'd rather not talk about that, or clean them. However, I don't want dirty toilets in our house, so I have to clean all three of them. I'd clean four or five because I really would like two downstairs bathrooms in my next house. We have one powder room on the first floor and two full baths upstairs.I'd like three full baths upstairs. Why in the world would I want to clean all that? Who knows, but having a product that can help out cleaning the three we currently have in my house is greatly appreciated. Soft Scrub ® is honestly amazing me with their new and improved products. I've learned about them in the past few months from trying them out and writing reviews.

Just clip it on the side of the bowl, make sure it is in the flow of water when the toil

Win an Ultimate prize pack from Betty Crocker Ultimate Meals and Mixes

So, how's the dinner time prep going? The kids are back in school, and then after school is sports, band practice. Do you have the taxi light on top your car on? Sound familiar? I can relate. Those nights of soccer practice and games kept us moving. I am the late afternoon here on the East Coast, and glad to have my dinner thoughts together. How did I do it?

Giveaway of Three Copies of Les Misérables on Blu Ray DVD combo Pack

You know that part of a DVD that prompts you to select play, scenes, bonus, set up while bits of the movie play? I did not get past that for several plays through the song "Do you hear the people sing" with people of France waving their flag, and singing about they will not be slaves again. The song is so moving, so powerful. It can stir up your the strength within your soul, it can remind you of the freedom of being an American, and it can bring you to tears of sadness, happiness, and joy. Now on to select play: I saw Les Misérables at the preview screening last year and was captivated, motionless in my seat. The DVD has the same effect. You'll be taken back to another place, another time. The cast is perfect, the singing is moving, and the scenery is real old world "Paris". As I watched Les Misérables it's a reminder to myself, a wake up call for us all to be humble, be better. To forgive each other, let go of our egos, help each other at times of need,
